Well..

I went to silver lake over the weekend... Loved the dunes.. See pics here

Had my first problem with the raptor, minor but still a problem.. I'm losing coolant, about 1/2 cup an hour. Leaking from around the water pump. I'm still in warranty, going to take it back to the dealer tomorrow...

Thinking that 3 year extended warranty might not be a bad idea right about now..

Brad,

If it is just leaking around the water pump, it should be no big deal. There is no gasket there, they used an o-ring. Is it possible that either the bolts loosened or the o-ring got fudged up? How about the hoses there? Possible a clamp pinched on of the hoses?

Just some thoughts. Keep us posted!

It's not the hoses.. and the bolts are tight..

To be honest I'm just not going to screw with it... it's under warranty and not a big issue, just going to let the dealer fix it..

Plus I want to put in my 2 cents that I think my trans might be going. I'm going to have them check for a bad second gear. Starting the documentation early on that one. I am really going to push for the 2002 gears if it ever does break...

Is it coming from the weep hole on bottom of pump?
