OK I know it has been a long time since I last posted.. I have been out enjoying my Monte!!! Well, I backed the car out of the garage the other day I noticed a pink puddle.. right in front of the Driver's tire???? Yes, I know the surge tank is there but I could not find a leak in that area.. it has to be running along a frame member... I also smell the distinct antifreeze smell after running the car a while.. No antifreeze in the oil... The car has 146,000 on it now and I am wondering if the water pump is leaking or ??? I took it to a friend that has a lift and he is going to take a look at it tomorrow while it is in the air.. are there any common issues to look for?

Thanks!

Did you find where it was coming from?

Just pressure test it and eliminate all the guessing

Get a new cap to put on. The drivers side tire leak means coolant is coming from the overflow tank which has a hose that goes into the fender. When the coolant cap on these starts going you'll hear gurgule sounds and notice bubbling..

Always replays with a grand prix gxp cap as they have lower pressure ratings and allow more coolant to flow through the system at a lower psi.also always remember to fill coolant only on the engine side never do it from the dex cool tank on the driver side
