    My Dad's 05 V6 taco developed a coolant leak. Upon looking he found the ac condenser has rubbed a hole in one of the radiator tubes. He said it looks like it has been rubbing for quite a while so if it had been noticed it could have been prevented. It is on the lower right(passenger) side of the truck. He bought the truck used, so he thinks it may have been in an accident, but nothing looks busted or bent. He is going to pull it out this afternoon and check it out better. He said the driver side has about 3/8" clearance but the passenger side is touching. I just checked my truck and it has about 1/2" clearance on both sides. It is real easy to see, the easiest being from directly underneath. Go check your truck!
