Hi there,

you will need to go get a cooling system pressure test to identify this leak, let me know what it is and i can advise on an approx cost of repairs.

Thank you so much, I don't know much about cars and I live in a new city and this repair im afriad is going to set me back....about a 3 years ago the jeep was overheating and i replaced the fan and the sensor..about once every couple months i have to add coolant...i really hope this isn't expensive...
Ok it turns out the leak is from the water pump and needs to be replaced its gonna cost 370...is that a good price
