I just had this problem and it was indeed my water pump even though several mechanics told me it was not. I had everything fixed you might check to see if it is your reserve tank (plastic overflow tank .....if your car has one one mechanic said it could have a small hole or hairline crack in it causing a leak). But really check that water pump. I had a 1998 Lumina LTZ, not sure what kinda car you have.

You need an auto insp mirror & a flash light also look at hoses that go to the heater core,Check Eng,at freeze plugs and the Head to block gasket.
One question does this affect the operation of vehicle.
One other thing internal coolant pressure an heat are greater after you turn off engine, Might show more leak then/good luck

Usually when you are a leak of coolant on the passenger side it usually refers to the heater core which is right underneath there.
Is your windshield fogging up more than usual? those are also signs of a burndt heater core.
Do you smell the antifreeze while driving? Heater core.
Another thing to watch for is smoke, nothing to be too alarmed for but right in the same direction on the passenger side sometimes you see small doses of smoke that comes up.
Hope it helps out!

the particularly leak that shows up on the passenger component by potential of technique of the tire is from the water pump. The water pump is pushed by potential of technique of the timing belt under the conceal in the back of the tension belts. you desire to at recent get it replaced! The leaking antifreeze gets on the timing belt and ought to reason the timing belt to bounce the enamel and bend valves. on the 2d you're observing a $six hundred interest. in case you do no longer take this heavily and the belt jumps the fee of a valve interest would be interior the $2,000 selection. I even have additionally considered leaking water pumps have this sort of undesirable bushing that the water pump pulley cocks and knocks the timing belt off. do no longer tension the motorized automobile different than this is immediately to a restoration shop!

The answers above are good starters also u might want to check ur freeze plugs. If u live in a cold area ur coolant (if not properly mixed) could have froze and popped a plug out.

Check for a cracked hose, or a cracked water pump. hose is better to replace then a water pump

If it is your coolant take it to find out where the leak is. It could be that too much was put in and there is a overflow or if it is not coo lant at all, it could be your ac's condensation.

Check for a bad heater hose......or a bad heater core. Hopefully your block is not cracked. Best of luck to you.
