Hello there,































I noticed a weird smell coming from my cars engine bay so I inspected the engine bay and saw that my engine coolant reservoir was empty. So i bought some 50/50 engine coolant and I put some in the reservoir about half way between low and max about 10 hrs later I checked it again and it was empty, but I could barely smell the the weird smell from before.































I only drove the car about 4 times each about a 10 or 15min trips...So why did the reservoir empty so fast? could it be that the radiator is low so it sucked it all up?































I also dont see any major kind of leak that I could see...Should I add 50/50 engine coolant to the radiator and the reservoir to see if it wont empty any more?















Well I added more coolant to the reservoir and the radiator. I dont know if this is normal but the only leaking i noticed was that the radiator was kind of "oozing" on the top sides of the radiator. It wasnt a constant spill I could see the green fluid just staying in place between the tiny gaps of the radiator. I dont know if this is normal? Hopefully the reservoir fluid doesnt empty...















Also,































engine oil is fine















there is no oil spots in the coolant















and with the engine on and cap off, the coolant doesnt bubble but the coolant does rise and spill over after the car has been on for a couple of minutes . i dont know if this is normal or maybe because i overfilled the radiator with coolant by accident? im not sure.















2nd edit:















I filled the reservoir to the max line and its nearly all gone in 1 day































This is not good...arent radiators suppose to last for the life of the vehicle? How much should I expect to pay for a new radiator and labor?
