Have you changed your coolant line from front to back?
If you have a pin-hole leak in your main line, under pressure, it could leak.

Subject: Leaky rear heater

Hi everyone.  I had my rear heater replace a few weeks ago after noticing the smell of coolant.  Didn't notice any leaks, until my mechanic told me he saw coolant dripping from the body.  It must have been a pretty small leak.

It's been running fine with no smell since replacement but the other day i found a puddle on the ground underneath the rear bench area.  I took the cover off and keep expecting to see it sitting there in a puddle of coolant but nothing.  Is there anywhere else it might be leaking if it's not the heater itself?

Thanks

Jeff
