Coolant leak

Asked by Franky Aug 13, 2019 at 10:03 PM about the 2008 Volkswagen Jetta 2.5

Question type: Maintenance & Repair

I have a coolant leak (see picture) Does this
hose (circled) return coolant to the reservoir
or does the overflow get pushed out through
that hose?? Should I try to put on another
clamp? Is the hose clogged?

I can see it coming out from the hose where it connects. I just want to know what direction it is flowing. Because then it’s a bad reservoir or it’s a bad hose.
