So...I was driving my car saturday and I noticed my car was running wicked hot on the water temp. It eventually got to the red mark before I could get home, so I stopped at walmart in scarborough and filled my car up with water that I bought there. She was a little low but nothing to get alarmed about. Got it home and let it sit for the night, hoping that it was just the heat.

Woke up this morning and had to put 3/4 of a gallon of coolant in it

and let it idle for about 10 mins, and everything seemed fine. Drove it to work, on my lunch break, and then drove it home.

As I got into my driveway, the temp started to spike again.....so I pulled my car off on the road, and that when I noticed a puddle under my car

. I popped the hood in search of the leak, I could hear it but couldn't pin point where it was coming from. It sounded like it was under the intercooler, or pretty dam close to the turbo. It was all wet in the general area and that's where it sounded like a pissing sound was coming from. Anyone got an idea of what it could be?
