My car is leaking what appears to be coolant from the firewall, but no coolant is entering the interior of the car...The radiator is holding the fluid but it is leaking rapidly from the back end of the engine..it is also making a noise around as it is leaking.. what do you think could it be..??

MasterIf its coming from the firewall it could be the area where the heater hose connects to the heater core. You need to have a shop check this because the heater core replacement is a huge job and it might just need new heater hoses http://repairpal.com/directory?address=94803&car_bran... and you can get estimates here http://repairpal.com/estimator?car_type_id=2731
