My problem is that after I had the transmission worked on recently (rebuilt)I suddenly got a leak from somewhere behind and under the upper radiator hose. I also replaced the thermostat several months ago inadvertently installing it backwards.After realizing my error I turned it back around.I also was not getting any heat in the car.Getting back to the problem at hand though is the water leak.We were coming back from shopping when the temp needle started to rise ,temp light lit and chime sounded immediately after. Thankfully were only 1 mile from home. Thanks in advance for your help.

It's time to tow the car to a reputable shop. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ We offer help in answering questions, clarifying things or giving advice but we are not a substitute for an on-site inspection by a professional. dodgemaniac New User Mar 5, 2012, 5:48 PM Post #3 of 3 (1474 views) Re: Water leak Sign In Hammer Time , Turns out it was nothing more than the heater hose.
