Hey guys, walked out to my car leaking coolant on the driveway. As soon as I added coolant it just drained right out. Here is a video of it, I'm hoping its just a hose that broke but seems like it could be the radiator?
Any suggestions judging by where the leak is at? This is the front middle of the car and seem to be leaking heavy. Link below, sorry I couldn't seem to get embed to work.
I'm hoping the radiator didn't get damaged but I'm pretty sure this is the reason why when I add coolant it just waterfalls right out of the reservoir.
Yeah looks like that would do it. Why are you concerned about the radiator?
looks like replacing the hose didn’t work and seems to be leaking in the front center of the engine, having it diagnosed today but the mechanic feels it may be the water pump. Coolant is still just draining out as soon as it’s added.

What about the turbo cooling lines as mentioned in a previous post?
Are they pretty much the same parts if references different part numbers? I need 2782001351 but shows cross references: 2782001400 A2782000100 A2782001351
There are two turbo coolant lines, left and right. You would certainly want to replace both while you're in there. Here are the parts for a 2016 S550 (not sure what year/model exactly you have) ... https://www.rockauto.com/en/catalog/...ant+line,46253
thanks Tom, I have a 2014 s550 base model. I believe I have the left which is 2782001351, do you by chance know what the right side part number is?

Congrats, glad you got it figured out and fixed! How hard was it to get the ends out of the holes on the turbos, that's a very tight spot on both sides ...

thanks! my mechanic worked on it so I don't really know the answer sorry, but according to him it was really tight work and parts to keep taking out and some lines just snapped off which we replaced.
