I have had to fill the coolant every two days just to keep it filled. Today, while I was sitting at the stop light, I smelled that fishy coolant smell... after I get back home i find that the reservoir is almost empty!! and I see some liquids come out the bottom of my car... I'm assuming that my radiator is busted... Whats the chances that my synapsis correct? Does anyone know if this is covered by extended warrenty? 2000 Silver SVT Contour - Daily Driver 1996 BBB Impala SS - Garage Queen http://www.cardomain.com/id/ghosstryda
