Sinister coolant filter hissing noise

My sinister coolant filter is losing pressure after shutdown at the blue hose to brass T fitting. Any idea on wether this a an issue or common thing?

That means you have a leaking hose and/or crimp connection and you need to get it repaied or replaced SOON before you have a BIG leak that leaves you stranded.

I'll be damned if it isn't leaking like a son of a *****. This is just what I wanted on Christmas Day...

Pay close attention to your degas bottle if it gets to low add some more coolant (make sure you are not mixinng different kinds) or DISTILLED WATER ONLY (not tap) until you can get it fixed
