Clunking sound, white smoke, overheated engine and coolant

Hi,

The title sums up the issues. About a week ago, I heard a "clunk clunk" sound on my 2002, 51k boxster S. I took it to the shop and, since they could not replicate the sound, they said to drive it some more and to bring it back if I heard it again.

Next time I drove the car... it did not make the sound. Instead, the AC/heater would not work, then a screeching sound (like a belt) came up, followed by white smoke. I noticed that the car was overheating so I turned it off and had it towed to the repair shop. On the flatbed of the towing truck you could see a bit of coolant dripping.

The shop has not looked at the car yet and I would like to know if anyone here has seen something similar in the past. Thank you for your input...I will keep you posted once I hear back from the shop.

Regards,

IK
