And now ......the rest of the story I hate when a thread has no ending being good or bad ..so here is the conclusion to mine. Took the X to the shop and after pressurizing the coolant system the furtherest back hose comin from the heater core back to the engine had a crack in it ,(and let me tell you it was hard to find it envolved two extendable mirrors and a flashlight) that being replaced resolved the coolant leak while he was repairing the hose he found that a plug had come unplugged at the rear of the climate control computer plugging it back in resolved my a/c issue. Thanks Again to Weasel and all the other fine folks at x5world for their help in this matter
