Your overflow tank is cracked in the filler neck... I think. It happened to me.

he said that the coolant was coming from below the AST......how could his coolant neck be cracked and him not notice it coming from there?????





check the cooirdinating hoses underneath and attached to the ast, and also, like dave said, check the lower rad. hose....

no, not at first, the overflow tank is used to just refill the other areas......BUT, if you keep losing it from the overflow tank, you will eventually get the buzzer.......replacing it will be the wisest of choices...

Well fill it up and let it run for a few minutes, with the belly pan off. Then look under there and see if the rad is leaking from the plug or any other place. You can pressure test the system too you know.
