My 2006 Dodge Ram 2500 Deisel is leaking coolant and I remeber reading about a common problem where this occurs. I tried doing a search but came up empty. Any thoughts / suggestions.

2500 Coolant Leak
RED,
I had a coolant leak on my 07- 5.9. There is a small hose on the passenger side of the truck back by the turbo. The hose (silver in color, foil wrapped) comes from the factory a little loose, when it gets cold the metal contracts slightly and the small drip occurs. Tighten the hose clamps a few turns. This should solve your problem, it fixed my truck.
Please see the pics for the hose location
Hope this helps

Leaking coolant
Same thing on my 06. Pretty common issue. I tightened them last year. I figured once was enough. I'll check them again.
