Hi,

Am a new Durango owner (this week!) - 2006 4wd 5.7 hemi - and have a water leak from a little stubby pipe on the passenger side behind the engine.

I wonder if this is an expansion tank for the coolant and is ok to leak or whether this might be a problem..? Here it is about 100 degrees today by the way!

Also wondered of there are any standard mods for improving a choppy ride - recommendations fro new springs/shocks at all?

Many thanks!

 

I like Bilstein for shocks, but KYB are decent.

Jmoxham,

What did the "leak" fluid look like? Was it coolant or simply condensation(water) from the A/C being used?

 

Thanks for the replies, re shocks and the source of the leak.

The fluid seemed to be clear, had not considered that it may be AC condensation..!

It was leaking from a stubby little black pipe behind the passenger front wheel area..

 

When the car is cool you may want to check the coolant level just in case but the next time you notice the fluid dripping, try turning off the A/C and see if it stops.

 

Great, many thanks for the advice!
