there is a very strange leak occuring right now. My sc is turned off with the keys out of the ignition. Right to the left of the throttlebody where is a ppsssssst noise like a flat tire. There is a tiny bit of smoke or steam i dunno, it doesnt have a smell. The car is off and it is still making the noise. Whats wrong? Is it my Air Conditioning?

man this sucks, first major problem with my sc:(

heres a pic of where it is coming from....
 
hey i just took it for a ride with the air conditioning on and then parked and shut off the engine. It did it and now it stopped afterwards.

im stumped and no coolant leak that i can see
 
i just ran it again aand it did it but died off quick.

is it just a pressure release for the radiator or something that i have not heard before? because it sounds like its by the radiator now and not the back of the car.
 
May have just been the freon pressore equeling then.
Your coment about steam made me think it was the coolant lines.
 
does freon do that for about 15 minutes after the car is shut off?

its a brand new compressor and recharged about 2 weeks ago.

any thoughts?
 
Well I've never timed it but there is a hissing that can be heard from the AC systems on all 5 of my cars after I shut down the engine after runing the AC.
