I was on highway then noticed my temperature gauge was all the way up. Then heard a loud pop and steam coming from hood. So pulled over let car cool then started up and added water. Well, had to keep pulling over every couple miles putting water in finally got home and saw when filling with water is pouring right back out somewhere near the water pump or middle of engine area. Could it be a hose busted that I can see or where could water be pouring back out in that area? Please help if you can.

Hello,

It looks like from the exploded cooling system diagram that I have included in the diagrams down below that there are a couple of hoses that could be damaged, #2 or #3, or probably, it could be your water pump that has gone bad. I have also included directions for the inspection, removal and installation for your vehicle's water pump as well in the diagrams down below. Please go through these guides and get back to us with what you are able to find out.

Thanks,
Alex
