coolant leaking from the bottom of the car

Asked by liquidgee Feb 22, 2020 at 03:07 PM about the 1999 Acura CL 2.3 FWD

Question type: Maintenance & Repair

Recently, i have noticed coolant leaking from the bottom of the car. I checked
the radiator for leaks but there is nothing i can see.  I looked a few places in
the car engine compartment and i think i saw a little coolant.  With the vehicle
not running, it seems to be slowly leaking out.  My limited knowledge of car
thought that it could be a hose.  Should I try some coolant leak products on
the market to see if that repairs the issue?  Im sure that would be a temp
fix.....

Don't use any stop leak in a bottle. Fix the leak. It's probably a heater hose, gasket or water pump. You will have to investigate further, maybe even start removing parts.
