help, I Think im losing coolant ! (LS6) I topped of my fluids when i did my oil change about 1500 miles ago.
05 cts-v -LS6
Today the low coolant light went on on startup, and the res tank was alittle below the cold min so i added alittle...
But for the past couple weeks ive had a few ocasions were I smelled alittle coolant from the car after parking in the garage. Especialy after longer trips .
I jacked her up and looked for leaks, drips etc. and took off the cover to see maybe something from the heads or water pump.
Dont see anything obvious ..
What are some coman problem spots on the LS?
Can it be the head gasket at 66k?
waterpump most likely?
I went from a lt1 which was a total nighmare so im new to the ls motor.
