Coolant leaking

marq.fcb · October 31st, 2009, 08:47 PM

A month ago I changed the antifreeze and a few days ago I noticed that the antifreeze leaking only when engine is cold.

Can anyone help me on this problem??

Where is it leaking from? You'll need to give us more information or post a photo, otherwise it's difficult to help.

On the passenger side, but I can't defined exactly where, somewhere above where the discharged coolant.

I will try post a photo for a few days

check the drain plug on the radiator. also check your hoses for any cracks, make sure they are secured to their respective points (water pump to radiator).

Today I was at the neighbor(mechanic), and we can not accurately detect leaks from where,
but here are seen drops

leaking: turn on engine but cold

not leaking: turn off engine, or turn on engine but warm

Sounds like the radiator core is leaking from the bottom passenger side corner. Best thing to do would be to remove the radiator, have it pressure tested at a radiator repair shop, and they can braze over the leak.

I'm not sure if the aluminum radiator can be repaired?

Thinking about buying Mishimoto radiator

Yes it can. Aluminium has a fairly low melting point so it's easy to weld.

its a pretty easy fix really and wont take the repair shop too long to fix, then youll be right as rain again!
