Im sure nobody cares, but I need to rant. This GODDAMN dodge caravan we have is leaking coolant for like the 189734890348093th time. Dodge and their retarded engineers made the aux coolant line connectors (Y pipes) for the rear heater out of plastic. And they crack and leak coolant all over the exhaust and trans. This is every single caravan from 2008+. This is not new Dodge. Its something that happens easily 5 times over a 100k life of one of these vans.
The only alternative has been to construct your own Y pipe connectors with metal replacements from plumbing stores. But they are insanely hard to find. I have never been able to get one.
Now FINALLY someone is making the complete kit with preshaped hoses and aluminum y pipes. Lets hope to god this stops this from ever happening again. Im so fucking sick of this van. Its supposed to be my DD for when I get my nice car because I refuse put 500 miles a week on a new sports car. So I have to keep fucking with this van. Its sucked about $2k out of us in repairs over the last year. Oh the joys of having older cars not under warranty.
Heres a pic of the new stuff for reference that I now get to try and replace in the dead of winter.
