tonight i was driving around and i come home and the car starts to smoke a little bit so i checked under the hood and i saw it was leaking a green liquid i assumed it was coolent then i looked under the car to see where it was leaking from and it looked like it was leaking well more like spewing out of the transmission , well where the engine and tran.s meet but the engine wasn't over heating on the gauge i dont really know this has happened before, but around 6 months ago but apprently the shop didn't fix it i need help because when i drive it now where ever i stop and turn off the car it pours the green liquid :1zhelp:

You probally just blew a hose. Im betting the heater hose.

Now would be a godd time to replace those hoses and switch to toyota red coolant.

I would suggest taking care of the hoses before driving the car again.

Its probably either the little right angle hose on the back of the head or the cap on the pipe that wraps around. Both are whores.

^ i had to same issues, little 90 degree house on the left side of the engine. It would leak all over the trans when hot. I replaced that a few days ago with a hose from my friends shop that had to same bend in it 6 times =P(snipped what i needed and that was it. Also did the power steering line the same way spent 2 1/2 hrs to try n get it out with out removing anything and i did. Replaced the p/s line in the same line + stopped for food. I'd say i spent a good hr on just that hose and 20 minutes on the ps hose and the rest just checking the brakes. GL & Have fun =P its a bitch to take off and a bitch to put on and clamp down. The top clap is the hardest to get too. I ended up using a new worm clamp which made it 10x easier to put on.
