4K coolant leak - THANKS...

["Jimmy D" <audi_freak@hotmail.com>]

Thanks to all that responded to my leaking coolant post.  I think that I 
fixed it, I also think that I’m going to buy an Aries K (or similar) car 
that doesn’t require you to be a 75lb contortionist to change a single 12” 
heater hose!  Just kidding , but the job was a RPITA.  I had to take half 
the car apart just to (barley) reach the thing; and from there I had to work 
by touch.  It took the better part of the day – most of the time was spent 
scratching my head trying to figure out how to pull it off.   I was so glad 
to see a hole in the old hose – due to the location I could only guess where 
the leak actually was.   The guy at the auto part store sold me the wrong 
hoses (yes, plural) but I managed to cut one of them to fit.  I should have 
known this was going to happen when he called the car an Awdi.
