I have given heads up on several items in the past and no one responded, but I'll try once more. The coolant hose from the turbo that is between the air filter housing and the head blew which sprayed coolant all over the top of the engine. If I didn't remove the rear hood seal I would not have noticed it (steam coming out the back of the hood) before getting on the freeway. Feel the hose just past the end of the steel line, and if it feels soft as compared to the rest of the hose-replace it! I had replaced the coolant hose from the turbo on the back of the engine a couple of months ago, which is a lot of fun. If you don't check this out plan on getting stuck in the middle of no where, or cooking your engine! I have an 03 GT with 60k miles.
