I topped off the coolant when I first bought my car and realized i cross threaded the cap when I reinstalled it and it didn't seal and puked out all of the coolant. Check that first. look for a bad O ring or missalinged cap.

I pulled over and nothing was leaking out, but the right rear suspension components were wet. I checked the trunk and the coolant was half empty in the tank with more residue around the black plastic cover.
I was in a really bad area and wanted to get out of there so I called AAA to have it taken to my shop.
I'm thinking tank or lines going to the tank.
Any other thoughts welcomed.
I can't complain with 170,000 hard miles on the clock and no breakdowns until now. |
