Hello,
Is your car a 6 cylinder? The "coolant T upgrade" is for 4 cylinder cars. But it is a major leak when it fails. On the 6 cylinder engine there a few different o-rings that can leak if the coolant resevoir and hoses to it are fine. The water pumps can leak as well as an o-ring by the thermostat and even the side tanks on the radiator. Really the car needs pressure tested on a lift so it can be raised and traces of coolant can be followed back to were they originate. Good Luck, Bernie
