My son called me Friday and said his EX (4.0, A4LD, 4x4, 203,000 miles) was spitting coolant. It was dark and cold, but he thought it was coming from the left side... So we drove down today (120 miles each way), hoping it was just a hose or some such. Nope.
It seems to be leaking right behind the timing cover on the drivers side. Is this a usual place for it too leak? Or am I looking at something catastrophic? It leaks too high to be a block freeze plug, but suppose it could be the headgasket. It just doesn't look like its going to fun to get to. Not really hard. But not fun.
