So I just recently replaced the radiator on an '07 CX-9 that was leaky and have been watching the coolant level and ground for any leaks. I didn't notice any leaks initially and have been using the Prestone prediluted neon green stuff.
Well today I noticed coolant resevoir was low. I brought it up to the mid point line and went ahead and cranked it up and then noticed ground spotting/dripping with the engine running. I started checking everything I touched while doing the radiator change and haven't been able to find any leaky hoses or anything from the radiator and everything is dry looking from the top.
When I get under the car, its a mess with coolant sprayed all on the undercarriage and appears to be seeping coolant somewhere up near the the oil filter and then again to the right of the exhaust on the underside/front (not even sure what to call this call this after reviewing the service manual)
How F'd am I?
