Coolent leak
So, I get in the car Monday and after about 3 mins of diving the light on the temp gauge "low coolant" light start flashing. I'm not surprised to see this as I can occasionally smell coolant and assumed the tank was starting to leak. Light stops blinking after about 5 more minutes and is intermittent for the remainder of the day. No sweat, I top it off that night on my way home (over filled it unfortunately, but it was dark) figuring I'll tackle it post holiday. Fast forward 4 days to this morning. I'm 5 minutes into my morning commute and the coolant light starts blinking and then goes out again. I park and go into the office. I come back around 10:00AM to a huge puddle on the passenger side just in front of the rear wheel. I check the tank and fill again with the remaining 1/2 gallon of coolant.
So I know I need to get in there and see why it's puking coolant everywhere, but I was wondering if anyone had any guess as to what has failed?
