2001 996 C2 Cab - Coolant Leak

[moosey]

I am getting a large amount of water and coolant leaking right behind the oil tank, any suggestions? Are there any hoses there that might need to be replaced?

There is no oil tank on a 996.

Check the coolant tank for cracks, check the under engine hoses, and check the water pump.

Sorry Loren, the oil case ? I checked the water pump/ coolant tank / and hoses in and around the bottom of the motor. The heavy leak is coming right in the middle where the rear sway bar is , but in the middle. Are there any hoses in thar area? I wont be able to get the car on a lift until next week.

It probably is leaking at the coolent tank on the driver's side

and is running down a hose to the sway bar.

I would tie a rag or zip tie a small rag under the coolent tank

and then drive until the car reaches normal temperature.

Then check the rag. The coolent hoses

run to the front of the car.
