Rebel4055 Posted November 18, 2010 Report Share Posted November 18, 2010 Moving this post here from engine/performance area since no one replies there. Now I did a coolant flush to the car and everything went well, now there is a leak on the right side of the rad if you are standing in front of the car, I can't exactly source the leak but when you drive it for awhile and shut the car off it pisses everywhere and when the pressure comes down it stops. But I just got back from a 20 minute drive and it didn't leak after I stopped and had the heat on. The temp was normal on the dash. Quote Rest In Peace mother.

cmamtower Posted November 18, 2010 Report Share Posted November 18, 2010 radiator cap? they can only handle so much for so long and sometimes they'll leak if their seal is worn down too much.

slamin87 Posted November 18, 2010 Report Share Posted November 18, 2010 did you check if the drain plug was put back on correctly or you may have a slight crack of some kind Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rebel4055 Posted November 18, 2010 Author Report Share Posted November 18, 2010 (edited) Didn't use the drain plug just undid both hoses that go into the engine itself and the waterpump. Rad cap is on the left side and double checked everything. I can't really take a look on the side of the rad because there is alot of shit in the way. It only does this if you drive it for a extended amount of time but if you take it on a 10 minute cruise it doesn't do it. Edited November 18, 2010 by Rebel4055 Quote Rest In Peace mother.

David78 Posted November 18, 2010 Report Share Posted November 18, 2010 Is your overflow tank leaking cracked? Rotted hoses? just get a flashlight crawl underneath your car( Obliviously not after you drove it.) And start looking for signs..

Forgot to mention that I did crawl under it and looked I can not figure out where it's coming from at all. Hoses,tank,rad cap is all good. Quote Rest In Peace mother.
