Coolant Leak...common places...need help

[vargasjc]

I have a 2000 camaro, 3.8 and yesterday i smelled some coolant ...when I parked it, I saw it was leaking like right underneath the AC compressor, but it was dark already and coulnt see much to tell exactly where it was coming from....I am hoping its just a hose or something easy to replace and cheap

Could anyone just tell me the common places where this could be leaking from...I am going to look at it today when I get off work

It wasnt overheating at all, but it did leak a lot. I checked the radiator and it needs coolant

clean off all the old fluid and make sure its dry. start your car up and just watch where the coolant is coming from. more than likely its a radiator hose or the radiator itself.

hope this helps!

I had a leak on my '00 somewhere near that area. The part was called an "elbow" ??

I had someone else repair the problem.
