Leaking from where?
Leaking a lot? Is it over heating? Could be a bad hose Could be a bad water pump that is starting to go bad :2 cents: |

Its like a neon yellow green color. Cools off your engine.

Let it leak out. You dont need ANTI coolant. Hot Coffee would do you better.
|
anti freeze or just coolant
you may need to have a hose replaced |
leaking from the front passenger side, it's not leaking a lot yet, and no my car doesn't overheat either.

I'm assuming you have green fluid leaking. Where's it coming from? If there is a sweet oder inside your car, then it's leaking from your heater core.
If it's on your driveway then it's from your radiator or a hose. It's not any of the above then your car is in deep shit. BTW, keep your cat's away from the leak. They love the taste of Etholene Glycol, it's sweet but deadly. Unless of course you don't like you cat. |

Run a hose from inside the car to your radiator and keep pouring coolant in as you drive.

Personally I wouldnt add any coolant or even touch it until the head gasket blows

Anti-coolant :1orglaugh
You mean anti-freeze. On hot days, if you've put too much anti-freeze/distilled water in your radiator, it'll overflow and look like a leak. That's OK. If you haven't added any lately (anti-freeze or distilled water), then you might have a leak. Put a peice of cardboard under the engine (near the front) after you drive it and note exactly where the liquid is dripping. Then get under the car and look for wet spots. If it's leaking from the top of the plastic overflow container, then you're cool. If it's leaking from any hoses or where the hoses join with anything else, you have a leak. DO NOT drive much with a leaky radiator; you could overheat the car and do major damage. Seek your local mechanic if it's a leak. |

I so don't appreciate that. *sigh* Just don't let any pets lap up the stuff. It tastes sweet but it's not very easy on the digestive system. |
