If it's an aftermarket tank in there and leaking around the bleeder, I'd replace the whole tank with one from Pelican Parts or FCP Euro.

*Before buying a new tank, I'd remove the bleeder and inspect it. Try reinstalling it. It might not have been torqued evenly or the seal could be pinched.

Cool thanks I'll try that too!

Also the smoke I saw could have just been from the coolant being low right? I didn't get any lights when it happened but I don't know if I should be concerned about any other component?
