So I had a fairly decent coolant leak shortly after I bought my 02 WS6 w/ 25k. Couldn't locate the problem spot so I put on a new GM water pump w/ new gaskets. A local mechanic could not see any sign of it leaking after putting the new pump on and after driving it roughly 20-30 miles. Get the car home and garage it for the night. Just started it up and let it warm up for a few minutes and what do ya know....a 50 cent piece size puddle of coolant. I can't see where it coming from! Looks to be towards the front of the car/motor. Anyone ever ran into this issue or can lend some prior knowledge? Thanks!

Check all your clamps and make sure they are seated tightly. Mine was leaking and I couldnt tell where it was comming from either. So i went and changed all of the clamps and the problem went away.

I will check those out. I seems like it only wants to do it on cold start ups. I drove it a few miles, came home and parked it for a few minutes and then started it back up and let it run while I layed under the car. Didn't leak at all during the 5 minutes I let it run. Nothing on the garage floor after letting it sit for 15 minutes as well.

Go borrow a pressure tester from a parts store.

For finding leaks you can use that UV leak detection kit stuff from the parts store too. I think they're about $40-$50.

I kinda have a similar problem. For some reason my radiator is full and my coolant dip reads zero.

The radiator and coolant overflow tank are not one in the same. Add coolant...
