Lemmy Car Experts, I have a car that is randomly leaking coolant and need advice (Resolved) (lemmy.world)

2012 Ford Focus, 155K miles, it is leaking a decent amount of coolant when my partner drives it to work but doesn't even leak a drop if I drive it to work. The mileage is the same but I don't sit in traffic. Could the extra heat from sitting in traffic be opening up a pinhole sized leak in the coolant line?

Edit: Thanks to a tip from the comments when the heat is turned on it leaks. I should be able to bypass that line pretty easy.

Thanks [email protected]

Does your partner blast the air conditioning?

Either way you should get a coolant system refresh and pressure test asap
