I also had a problem with dripping coolent after i had my oil changed and the top off my coolent I pulled in the garage and the car was dripping from under the car. what I found was that when they added coolent it must have caused an air pocket in my system which made it overflow on to the ground once the system was pressurized. I have not had a problem after that day and the car is running perfectly. I have a friend and we just supercharged his Z06, (that's right supercharged) anyway we had to drain most of the coolent . Upon completion we re-filled the system which cause air pockets, which caused the car to over heat. We then slowly added coolent until the theromstat opened and the system started to cycle which cured the problem.
