[QUOTE="Stangra, post: 16722361, member: 193061"] Update: While working on the car today I noticed a couple more fresh water drops hanging from the tranny and oil pan. It's been warmer in the garage the past few days so maybe a little expansion taking place? I rigged my Airlift vacuum filler to put light pressure in the intercooler degas tank... checked underneath and found a few more drops, I'm pretty sure the intercooler or the manifold tubes are leaking. What I can't figure is how water is getting to the back/ bottom of the motor. There is no sign of external leakage at the intercooler fittings/tubes and no sign of water in the valley under the manifold, or on top of the block and belhousing. I assume that anything leaking from the intercooler or the tubes/O-rings internal to the manifold would be captured inside the lower manifold pan, and if coming from there, would be wetting one of the areas I've checked. I'm baffled !!!!! [/QUOTE]
