mga tol patulong naman. may nahulog na soft plastic tube sa ilalim ng kotse ko 1994 sentra eccs, attached here is the picture (malaki lang tignan sa picture, pero mas maliit ito sa personal), may problema din sa tubig kasi ang bilis maubos, after 24 hrs, wala ng tubig yung reserve, may tumutulong tubig sa ilalim kahit hindi umaandar ang makina. saan may magandang auto mechanic sa north area, i live in valenzuela. maraming auto shop sa may bandang mindanao at visayas ave na malapit sa amin, may mairerecommend ba kayo within that area? thanks

wala nga palang pagbabago sa tunog ng makina, smooth pa naman ang takbo walang kakaibang tunog, i just drove from house to calamba and back. mukhang wala namang kakaiba, yun nga lang mabilis maubos yung tubig.

What's the approximate diameter (width) of the tube? Looks like an air intake tube, to me... the one that goes under the air box.

Iyong tumutulong tubig tignan mo iyong radiator hose baka may leak at iyong clamp ng radiator hose baka sira na. Check mo rin radiator cap mo.

its around 5 inches long and 1-1.5 inch in diameter. yes it seems like an air tube since it has no dry liquid/oil on it.

can anyone recommend good auto mechanic near my area thanks

At that size, I'm pretty sure it's an air tube. You can do this yourself, just reattach it under the air filter box in the front left area of the engine bay.

The water... well... it will depend on where the dripping is. It could be a loose or cracked hose, or... worst case scenario... if the dripping is right underneath the engine block... it could be the water pump.

Best to have it checked if you don't know what to look for.

sir mukha drain tube lang ng airconditioner mo yan. salpak mo lang kung san may butas sa firewall mo na may tumutulo na tubig. paandarin mo muna a/c mo para ma locate mo. yun pagbawas ng tubig sa reservoir baka hiwalay na problema yun. pa check mo na lang sa talyer
