i have a 2003 and it just started leaking coolant i got under it to see where it was leaking and it coming from the just above the lower radiator hose any body know what it it?
Water pump-- it is a common problem! About $500 with labor at the dealer. NAPA sells one for about $80. If you are handy with tools, you can change it yourself.

if your truck is still covered under the 5 year/100,000 mile warranty it will only cost 100 for the dealer to do it for you...well worth it in my opinion. BTW, Welcome to the forum!!

Id find someone with a pressure checker and have them put it on to test your system. That way you could see for sure where the leak it. It could be a cracked gasket, housing or just a loose bolt!

I agree with ob_1jr. But remember if you take it to the dealer and the leak is found to be on the engine your covered by the 100k mile warranty. Its a $100 deductible if over 36k miles. That way its done under warranty, you done have to do anything, and the new parts are under warranty!
