Hi,
Odd story but my friend lets me borrow his Aveo to use until my new ordered Silverado comes in.. just sold mine and needed a vehicle.
Bad part is, today I just noticed a pretty extensive coolant leak. Parked the car at the store, heard it, smelled it. Let the car cool down for 2 hours, put in 1.1 gallon of water, and drove it home with the heater on just in case. Made the 10 mile drive just fine. Got home and there were drops coming from it still. Steam just right behind and below the coil pack. I let it cool again and added 0.5 gallons. So in 10 miles it lost half a gallon of water. Thats a pretty big leak, but not a straight out hole/cut.
Im a capable mechanic, but know nothing about Aveos, and its very dark here right now. Any experienced Aveo people have a clue at what is actually leaking? Hoping its something common and I can just order a common hose and have it back under way for my drive to work Monday.
So, any educated guesses on what is leaking right under and behind the ignition coil pack on the drivers side of the engine of an 05 Aveo automatic?
Thanks,
Rick
