I noticed car was overheating so i pulled over popped the hood. water was coming out from somewhere to the back /bottom driver side of the car. any possibilities of what it is , hose water pump?

Engine breather pipe maybe blocked.

Are you sure that it is not steam?

Could be a wire left off the starter .

check top radiator hose goes to thermostat housing sound like its leaking if your engine leaking from left driver side on top of engine it has to be top radiator thermostat hose leaking.wait until engine cool down replace top radiator hose see if coolant leaking still occur if so you could have radiator leak.

I had the same problem i change the bottom hose and the water pumps inside came loose replaced water pump....Also it has a bleeder by the top hose by battery get the air out.....

You will be able to open the hood if you pull off your splash guard and use a long long flat head screwdriver or something like that. You'll see the hood latch in front of the radiator with the cable attached to it at the top near the hood, put it on the drivers side edge of the bottom of the latch and pry to the passenger side, the lever moves from the drivers side to the passengers side, the cable basically pulls the top of it to achieve this. so your doing the same thing on the bottom with the screwdriver.


Release the latch from underneath by the lever that you have to pry towards the passenger side. Then open the hood, and repair or replace the safety release mechanism. This is very simple to remove out from the hood.

You should run the engine and watch it to see if you can see where the leak is coming from, it is most likely coming from a hose or the water pump.

Should not be the case of snow getting in there, but depending on how fluffy it is, maybe it did ?

The air intake is in the driver's side fender, between the inner and outer fender, protected on the bottom by the plastic fender well.

If you pop the hood, you will see where the intake in through the inner fender. You can remove this from the air filter rack / tray on the throttle body ( plastic parts, they pull apat if 60* or warmer real easy ), this will allow you to pull the intake snorkel out of the fender and check it for obstructions.

small plastic tie straps will do the trick

I think you have made a correct diagnosis. The loss of power and water from exhaust all point that way.
