    Leaking coolant somewhere in the front passenger side. Looks like a drip is coming from a wiring plug not too far below the cap. Anyone have any ideas as to what it could be. Going to start taking it apart this weekend but just looking for opinions.

    The coolant elbows near the back were replaced about a week ago.

    Your talking on the rad right? Its the coolant level sensor. I would take it out and put some thread tape on the threads and put it back in. If that does not seal it, might need a new sensor.

    Pulled out the sensor and the o rings didn't look so hot so got some new ones from the hardware store and it seems to be working.
