    My 16M has developed a coolant leak from the left radiator overnight. I was greeted this morning, after about a 50 mile drive yesterday, by a coolant puddle on the floor under the left front side of the car. The bottom of the radiator is wet. I am not looking forward to changing out the radiator. A big job. Does anyone out there have any experience with any radiator stop leak products? Do they work? Will they damage my cooling system? I have never used any of these. Most radiators on my other cars are easy to change out after repair or replacement. Any thoughts?

    Are you sure it is from radiator? Unless you are double damn sure smart money pressurizes the cooling system to look for where it leaks.
