I have coolant leaking from the side opposite of where the rad hoses are, it is back by the ac compressor, anybody know what is going on? I am loosing about 2 litres of coolant each time it leaks, oh yeah, the car is not overheating as long as i add more coolant after the leak.

As far as I know there arent and coolant lines over there except for the coolant line that's on your turbo

someone had this problem before and a member prudently pointed out that there are also the freeze plugs on the block in that area. unlikely, but possible.
