hey guys im a dingy female and i have NO idea what this is but i do know when i turn my car on water just starts PORING out of it and my car over heats. Anyone who can help me id greatly appreciate it. I do know its on the right side of the engine.





Attachment 18631thanks again guys.:confused::confused: (sorry its a crappy picture hopefully yall can see what i circled... its dark red)

can you take a picture from a little farther away? it is hard to understand the location of what you circled.
That looks like a high pressure fitting for your A/C system which does not have coolant in it so that cannot be right.
Please try not to overheat your car as it is very bad for the motor and can be very costly to repair.

Hopefully this picture is better :/. Yes i am not even driving my car due to it over heating. I circled it in yellow. that is the area i see all the water pouring out of. Attachment 18630

is this my egr valve? and if so why is it pouring water from under it?

That part you circled is the exhaust feed tube that goes to the EGR valve.
The leak is probably one of the transfer hoses under that fitting. There is also a waterpump feed pipe under there.
You need to watch closely in that area while someone starts the car briefly.

Yea your EGR valve has nothing to do with water in any way shape or form.
