Asked by Silly070208 Jan 14, 2019 at 04:55 PM about the 2000 Chevrolet Impala LS FWD

Question type: Maintenance & Repair

My car keeps overheating. My antifreeze
keeps leaking out so im thinking i have a
leak in my radiator or hose. Problem is we
cant find the leak. Im pretty sure its not a
head gasgit becaus3 its leaking out
almost immediately when i puy antifreeze
in and i mean immediately. It just started
really overheating to where i cant even
drive it a couple dats ago because i cant
make it a mile down the road without
having to blast my heat and hope it keeps
my thermostat from going in the red.
However it still smokes. I dont want to
permanently damage my car or make it
too much of an expensive fix that i cant
afford it and i have kids i have to have a
reliable car. What do you think it is? And
what can i do? Someone please help. My
fionce does not know where to locate the
leak and is not very familiar with newer
cars.

I bought a thermostat but it has not been put in yet. My fionce is also not familiar with how to put it in on my car. But says the one in does not look old.

If you can't see a small leak it's probably coming out the weeper hole on the water pump. Cheapest thing is to replace the water pump in the thermostat gaskets to see if that fixes it
