    I have an 08 gp base and i was doin some interior stuff and unhooked the battery so it wouldnt die on me. about an hour later when i went to hook the battery back up and noticed there was hole in the hose goin from the radiator the coolant (the surge tank). it had what looked like a bunch of crusted dexcool or something orange and crusted up around the hole. i have no idea when it happened how it happened nothing. my cars been running fine everything been watchin the temp no idea what happened. and yes i cut the hose shorter and took care of hole but what i wanna know is why the hell did it pop open like that any help much appreciated

    Maybe a beetle crawled in there, got stuck, and pop.

    More than likely it rubbed on the belt at one point.
