08 C6 Coolant leak
New owner and new to the forum, Got a 08 C6 and was getting ready to change oil in the car and noticed a little coolant on the floor. Upon further inspection I pulled the air intake parts off and there is a plastic coolant Tee under that area, that joins some coolant lines. It appears to be leaking from that Tee. Any others have this issue? Whats the cure? New coolant lines and Tee?
Thanks in advance for help

Which tee are you talking about? Easy way is to just replace the line with GM parts. The tee's are made on and come installed.
Other option is to chop it off and replace with another one
On a few cases the different ends of the tees are different sizes, so keep that in mind if just replacing the tee

It seems as this is all built together, the tee seems to be made on the hoses. Do you replace tee and hoses and all?
Anybody know what this is called? Just wondering what to ask for at the dealer...maybe a part #
