Coolant overflow.
Read a bunch of threads and have decided to try a new radiator cap first then bleed the system. Does it matter what type I use? OEM ok?
The problem occurs when I stop the car in any climate (Washington State or Georgia, 60 to 100 degrees). What happens is coolant pushes out into the overflow tank and goes a little pass Max on an OEM tank. When it does this my driver side Turbo coolant line ( Turbonetics kit) leaks a little. I have tightened it down as much as I can it just won't go anymore.
Car doesn't overheat and I have not been loosing a lot of coolant. Just a few tablespoons here and there.
