Water Pump Going Bad???
I noticed...shortly after turning the car off, a small drip of coolant makes a spot of about the size of a quarter on the driveway. It only leaks for a second. I believe it's right under the water pump. Is this the start of a water pump going bad?

If it's leaking from one of the small holes on the top or bottom of the housing on the shaft of the pump - the cone-shaped piece of the pump where the pulley sticks out from - then your pump's seals are going/gone and you'll need a new water pump. It's a little tricky trying to tell where the leak is sometimes, since the water drips down the housing and winds up looking like it's from the gasket. Lastly, make sure it's coolant and not just water from your air conditioner condenser. Hope this helps! |
