Well, I've replaced the water pump and a couple coolant lines, and I still see that drip drip drip of coolant under the Volvo. The puddle forms just aft of the front driver's side wheel. It's pretty damp on that side of the engine bay near the firewall too, so I'm thinking it's running down the block or firewall to drip.

What are the two water lines running into the firewall there? They seem damp, and I'm thinking it's coming from one of them, probably the upper of the two. They seem like a pain to get at, am I right? I'll probably take it in to work today to pressure test and see if they can't find the culprit.

I'm getting ready to brick my brick. Wish it would last at least another 2 months though.
