Hi everyone,
I'm on a road trip and have a potentially big problem. I got a very small coolant leak which appears to be behind the AC compressor. Fortunately I caught it before it drained to much & caused damage. I only lost 2 cups.
Unfortunately I'm on a road trip & need to address this immediately. I have a basic tool kit but I'm hesitant to dive in too deep. Anyone experience this scenario? I'm thinking it could be the water pump, unless there is a small coolant line behind the AC compressor I'm not able to see. I can definitely remove the AC compressor with the tools I have. Changing out the water pump / timing belt probably not. The timing belt is due in 20,000 miles, so I'm hoping it is not the water pump. Also curious on the Aisin kit from Rock Auto - does anyone has a better suggestion? I figure you cant go wrong with Aisin parts. Any ideas / input
on this problem would be greatly appreciated!
Thanks!
John
