They do yes it is located behind driver side rear tire
Depending on if you have an M7 or an A8 you may have a transmission cooler in the left rear quarter and you definitely have the differential cooler in the right rear quarter. You could also have dislodged a fluid line leading to the transmission or rear dif. Either way, no, it is not advisable to drive the vehicle even for a short distance. Have it flat-bedded to your service location in order to prevent serious damage.

Oh s**t it’s a manual just clued into what you were gettin at
That was my earlier point. It isn't a rad supporting engine cooling. You are leaking some other fluid likely transmission or differential.
Do not drive.
