04 6.0 Coolant Leak

[Stan's 04]

I just got my truck back from the dealership and i still have coolant under the right side wheel . They replaced the EGR cooler and front cover gasket but i still have this leak also I do park on a small incline , is it normal for this to happen how can this be fixed . Thanks for the help .

Not normal, but I don't know what would be leaking on the passenger side. Does it only leak when driving or does it leak when sitting?

It seems to leak while sitting over night but not while driving ,cause there is no spot on the ground after letting it sit for an hour or so

Look at the EGR cooler and see if the small hose is blue or orange. If it's orange then they didn't replace it like they should have. That's usually the source of the cold leak. The "new" hose is blue. It's been out about 3 years.

Thanks for the help first of all . before i took it in that hose you are talking about was orange I will check to see if that was changed tonight .

if this is where your leak is, it's that orange hose.

I'm having the same problem. Thought I was going to have the dealer work on it but I'll check that hose. Where should I look. I dont have a clue where to start.

Big Hoss that hose is right under the turbo on the right side you'll see it look down on the manifold to see if you have coolant sitting there , and the hose on mine is still orange beginning to wonder if the did what the say the did .

How hard is it to replace. I looked at it mine is orange and its wet where that hose connects the bolts holding that end to the motor have coolant in the heads of them. I called my diesel shop and they told me 240 in labor! How hard is it to do yourself
?

The Dealer did mine so I don't no how hard this is yet
