Coolant LEAK :( starting univeristy next week no car :(
After cleaning my SSV I then noticed after putting everything back together that I had a pretty nasty coolant leak. It seems to be coming from the thermostat area but I cannot tell if it is the thermostat itself or the gasket or even a hose because it drips straight down. I need this car fixed because I start university next week. What should I do.
