Your mechanic can locate this leak with a cooling system pressure test, failure to get tis repaired can result in serious engine damage if the over heating continues.

Hi there,

You will have to get the engine tested for a head gasket problem, check the spark plugs foe a dirty brown stain on the ceramic core, this is a sign of water in the combustion chamber, also if you are using anti freeze you may have white smoke coming out the exhaust, you can also get a test done to check for exhaust gasses in the cooling system, this is a sure sign of head gasket problems, start here.

I replaced the water pump and thermostat on my car yet it keeps leaking water. I'm sure that my radiator fan does not turn on unless I turn my AC on. Any solutions? I was told about a sensor that alerts the fans to turn on. Does anyone know where that might be located?

Have you check the intake manifold gasket for leak
Look at the back of the engine on top of tranny for coolant leak or under the power steering pump if so you need intake manifold gasket
Good luck
