It has happened again, third time in less than 60days. The ole car has let me down again. I am leaking antifreeze all over again. I filler her up to see if there was a leek and sure enough again theres a leak and I mean a big one, resivoir cant remain full. Have to take her in on monday. Dam this is aggrivating.

i had the same prob man, u got to replace you raditor hoses, probably have a hole, about $45 for both, that should fix it, it drains faster when u drive. so replace them hoses. and all should be good.
not 2 much work but its hard as hell in the limited space but its doable, u can do this by your self no need to pay some ******* for 1 hour labor work when u can get this done in about 20-30 minutes.

Well I still have the warranty on my car and they did replace the same parts two time allready, so they will have to repair it on thier time and expense. good thing though I just got a new job with mucho dinero (thank The Lord) So Im trading in the old beast for something snazy and reliable . its a shame it had to come to this.
