Coolant leak, need opinions/info Hello all. I just bought a used 2014 Civic LX 5 days ago and it has a coolant leak. It’s under warranty from the dealer still so I’m taking it back to get fixed for free, however I’m not very inclined to trust this dealer anymore since they clearly sold me a car with a preexisting leak and did not disclose that info. I just wanna get some input on what could possibly be the cause of the leak just so I have more info when talking to the dealer. I want to make sure they’re addressing and fixing the issue properly. Leak was coming from somewhere on the far left (driver) side of the vehicle, close to the front. it’s not a constant leak, it’s like it just keeps dumping some out here and there. https://cimg3.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.civ...249f67532.jpeg I did not take a pic of the first leak I noticed (it was a sizeable puddle, bigger than this), but this photo shows where more leaked out later. I checked the levels in the radiator and expansion tank and they seem to be adequate. I couldn’t actually see into the tank to see what level it’s at but the tube that goes into it was wet several inches up, indicating it’s right near the max line. Thoughts? Any particular things I should make sure are being addressed when I take it to get fixed tomorrow? I’m not very car savvy, just making sure I don’t get dicked around or lied to. Thanks |

Re: Coolant leak, need opinions/info no marks left? Humid parts? especially the hoses going to the radiator? |
Re: Coolant leak, need opinions/info You're going to have to pull off the lower splash shield to see better, or make it the dealers problem |
