I had the same exact leak with my chrysler town and country. I couldn't see any water leaking but I knew it was leaking because I would drive the van like less than 5 miles and it would start to overheat and would be about a gallon low on coolant so I took it to an auto repair shop and they told me that I needed a new radiator so I asked them to show me where it was leaking. They showed me a couple of drops around the radiator cap and I knew right away that wasn't the leak because of the volume of coolant loss. So I refilled the radiator and drove it home. When I reexamined the engine I observed the coolant leaking from the plastic Y piece connecting to the heating core. The reason I didn't see any coolant leaking was the position of the leak was above the engine manifold causing the coolant to immediately evaporate. I found the part at my local auto parts store and replaced it myself for under $20 the auto repair shop wanted to charge me $800.
I have the exact same thing going on in my t and c wondering if it's the same issue ? Not a sign of a leak anywhere but constantly having to put coolant in ..
Could be the plastic housing on side or the oil filter housing there will be stains from evaporation present on the bell housing
Thanks for the effort. I hate music in the background. I also hate napa parts. How many miles on the van when the hose blew?
Start your own channel and I use napa because for 2yrs my customers are covered under a nationwide warranty backed by my shop... what does the mileage have to do with the repairs a new car can have part failure there built by man
Is that coolant you pit in there
@andreacorpos4512 yes a good mix of 50/50
Eff dodge using plastic for coolant parts. They always go bad.
It's not just Dodge every manufacturer has moved to some sort of composite cooling system. Not to mention now the air directed across the radiator and under the car via shields is just as important there are some that will overheat bad bad if theses are not in place and functioning. Unfortunately people keep falling for the asstetics rather than the reliability and engineers and manufacturers keep pushing non real world tested products to market. GM's recent Active fuel management and rod bearing failures are just one example.
@@YouCanFixIt I had a 2017 dodge dart. I had to replace every single plastic coolant part. However no one made metal ones. So I replaced them all twice!
Yeah I just had to replace the plastic crossover tube by the water pump. I got an aluminum one on Amazon for 40$.
