Fastest way is to pressure test the system while opening up the cowl area from the front trunk. The pressure test will confirm the cooling system is leaking with in moments, looking down into the compartment containing the heater core should visually confirm that is where the leak is. From there it is a matter of swapping out parts and purging the air from the cooling system, it is also a good time to do a complete cooling system dump and refill..........
