Here are a couple of tips for you, since you're new, and I'm generally a nice guy.

For something like a coolant leak, posting up in the "Troubleshooting" forum might yield better results.

You really shouldn't make your thread title the same as your name; Try something like, "Coolant Leak" or similar.

In your post, if you could include a LOT more information, it would help us, help you. Things like (but not limited to), mileage, maintenance history, recent changes, when did the problem start, etc.

Before opening a new thread, it would be advisable to do a little searching around on the forums. You can do this by clicking on the navigation bar "Search" button, or by following the link in my signature. I did a quick search for "Coolant Leak" and find quite a few posts on the topic. Start with the search first.

In the event that you've exhausted all reasonable options, and you still can't figure out the issue, your first post should be something like, "I did a lot of research on the problem in the forums and elsewhere. I have also tried the following steps first: I did this, and this happened, I did this afterward..." (So on and so forth...) "..So I was wondering if anyone else in the community has had experience with this, and can shed some light on my situation."

Also, any pictures will help greatly!

Hope this helps you get your issue fixed! We're a great group of guys here, and don't mind helping at all, so long as you ask in the right way. I'm not saying kiss *** or anything like that, just stating that a little work on your part will go a long way. If you've shown us that you've done what you can to solve the issue, we'll usually be glad to lend a hand most of the time.

Just follow the steps above and everything should work out fine.

Really? I thought that's what most people say when they haven't done any of that stuff but know they wont get help unless they say they have.

That thread title was very confusing lmao. I didn't even recognize the fact that it was the user name.

If you can see a spray, I'd imagine it can't be too hard to track it down... more information would help us figure out why you're having trouble.

yiksing

is it leaking or is it overflowing from the reservoir?
