Default Coolent Leak

2001 A4 2.8

A few weeks ago I had a coolent light come on when I was on the parkway. I pulled over and picked up some coolent. The gas staion guy opened up the coolent thing ( overflew everwhere) dumass that he was. Well I drove back home with the light on. I took to the mechanic and he replaced the coolent tank becuase thats where the leak was comming from. Welll it didnt leak for awhile. Last night I look under the car and there is a small puddle. So I put white cardboard under the car and to find out this morinign NOTHING is there!! I dont get this Fuc#ing car.

Could it be residue??
Sorry for my nubeness

Check all the hoses especially the ones ion the back of the engine, they have a tendecy to corrode, and leak alittle bit. Prob will only leak while car is warm casue thats when there is pressure in the system

I had a similar issue with my car. I told the shop to do a full check and they found it was a coolant clip that had come loose.

Did you have the a/c on?
Are you sure it wasnt the pefectly normal condensation that leaks for the ac evertime you park your car? And then would not be there in the morning?
