Hose Leak

[JerryCanada]

Was filling the washer fluid last night and found the hose between engine and radiator appear to be leaking. Anyone know what this hose is? 2015 Sierra 1500 with 5.3L.

I think thats the engine oil cooler line.

Might be trans cooler line. They’ve be an issue for years and years leaking where the rubber line connects to the hard line.

Oil cooler lines, they seep at the fittings.

 

I would wipe them down, then monitor the amount of fluid leaking.

 

How many miles on the truck? Ever noticed any spots of fluid under the truck on the floor/ground?

Thats the engine oil cooler line, the  trans cooler lines are the smaller ones.

my 2016 with 47K miles looks identical to yours.
