i found where the coolant is leaking from in my car, but can someone tell me what the name is or part number of the part that is leaking? heres a link to a pic http://i15.photobucket.com/albums/a3...correctpic.jpg
it looks like its leaking from a sensor?
someone help.

 

This appears to be a heater hose going bad. It need to be replaced; as they go bad from the inside out.

 

Yes indeed. Notice there is a hose clamp right there (the "sensor" is the heater core control valve). Probably just the heater hose leaking.

 

anyone happen to know the part number for this heater hose? also there is a hose on the other side of the heater core control valve, could that be the culprit?

 

It actually looking like the heater control valve ITSELF is leaking. Isn't that the
rod on the side of it w/ the coolant residue?

 

yea the coolant is dripping out of the heater control valve, i didnt really think it would be a heater hose. ANyone know how much this piece goes for?

 

call your local toyota dealer and ask them.

 

$350ish from the dealer. I have an extra one sitting around if you find that is the problem and want a cheap used one (my sensor on top stopped working and I bought the whole assembly used).

 

$350!!, i just called toyota and they told me the heater core control valve cost $52.03. This si the price they told me from a n/a supra. Would the valve be in the same location in the supra as it is in the sc300?

Maybe the supra uses a mechanical valve vs the electronic???

 

Nope, not the same as the supra.

 

You can bypass the heater vsv or i have a spare one if your intrested. Shoot me a PM if you are.
