      Coolant flowing out

      Hi,

      I am driving a Chevy Aveo 2011 L. The problem I just realised is after driving a distance of around 30km or 18.6Miles, when I switched off the car, coolant will start dripping down ( though not too much). What could be the reason and how can this be fixed?

      Regards,

      Charles

      need to find where is the cooling is leaking. Check the hoses going to the heater core behind the engine and to the firewall.
      Please do not power off, firmware update pending.....

      Another place to look is the gasket between the water pump and the engine block; that is where it was leaking in my 2010. (Although to get the pulley off, you WILL need the special tool EN-49201 from Kent-Moore; the gap between the pulley and the frame rail is just too small for conventional tools, and they are easily found on eBay for MUCH less than what GM wants it for)
