Hey guys
Car was overheating. Pulled over twice and let it cool. Still didn't work. Let it sit in driveway for a couple days and filled up coolant. Drove it to mechanic an coolant was leaking out the top of radiator cap. Didn't overheat on drive to mechanic but it was only 5 minutes away. Is this a common problem? Will I need to replace the radiator? Let me know Thx Z |

Could you give me a more descriptive explanation of where it was leaking. There are numerous simple parts in the cooling system that can go bad and cause the the symptoms you are describing. The more information and detail you can provide the better we can help you diagnose the problem. Going into detail will also make people-who-know-what-their-talking-about more likely to chime in.
