coolant line cut

engine coolant line/hose turned very crispy due the recent low temp in NY plus the age of the rubber.
the line is crispy like glass and coolant is leaking near the connecting point around the supercharger.
any repair information or estimate cost.my dealer is near by, I think this time I can not run away from them.
same thing happened on my wind shield wiper water line also just last month,bad luck

I think this might be your issue
this happened to me a while ago

the 1/2 inch heater hose and hose clamp trick works really well, I drove the car some 500 miles with that temporary hose configuration, no problems

it shouldn't be too bad to drive there since it's cold outside, still try to be moving as fast as legally and reasonably possible, you can kind of "air cool" your engine, I drove home 10 miles or so going 75 miles per hour on the interstate with the "low coolant" warning, but I didn't get "high temp" warning until I was only moving 20 miles per hour in the neighborhood
