05 WK 5.7L coolant leak

Asked by NochDguir Nov 29, 2018 at 04:02 PM about the 2005 Jeep Grand Cherokee Limited 4WD

Question type: Maintenance & Repair

i bought my 05' a few months ago and like any older high mileage jeep i'm running
down leaks and maintenance that was never really done... the most urgent I think is
this coolant leak. I really dont drive it much yet but in two months its consumed a
gallon of antifreeze and seems to leak mostly after driving it. after searching around
abit i thought it might be the water pump but visual inspection doesn't seem to be
the case. I'm passingly familiar with general automotive maintenance (fluids brakes
minor parts R&R etc...) but this is my first jeep and aircraft engine maintenance
experience doesn't really translate into automotive experience. Based on the
pictures does anyone have any better ideas of what should be looked at as the
possible culprit?

Right sorry forgot to include some information I had both hoses checked last month when the upper hose was replaced kinda assumed it wasn't the lower hose but I appreciate the thought
