Could be a bad hose.. or it could be your water pump or radiator. Where is the leak?????? It could be a leak in the radiator, hoses, weep hole in water pump, intake manifold, or if you don't see coolant dripping to the ground, it may be a busted head gasket (in which case you should know there's a problem)I'm not a mechanic so get a dealer to do a pressure test. http://www.autozone.com/servlet/UiBroker?UseCase=S001&UserAction=viewSimpleDiagInfo&Parameters=info
