Post a picture of where the leak is (under the car). And post a picture of the engine bay (hood open).

I will then tell you where to look.

Sorry about the late reply. I work at a repair shop.

What size engine? Standard or automatic?

You have to put some effort into your replies if you REALLY want some help. I don't have a crystal ball and I'm not psychic.

Different engines have different designs and components.

A simple non helpful reply you would get from an expert would be. Follow the leak to its source, or, radiator, coolant hose, water pump, coolant flange. Etc.

Sometimes going to a repair shop is cheaper than trying to solve things yourself. You're on day 3 soon since you posted your question. Could have been fixed by now or at least diagnosed for a small fee by a shop.

I reply for fun. I'm not an expert, maybe they have better luck getting information from you.

Sorry, don't mean to sound harsh, but you have to communicate. English is my second language and I seem to be doing pretty good at asking and giving information.
