Angry 2003 Kia Sedona leaking antifreeze.

I went to the gas station today and came out to find anti-freeze pouring out underneath my van in the middle. I'm sure it probably has something to do with the back heat/air. Any one have any ideas or if we can fix this problem ourselves? Thanks

Well, before you can determine if you can fix it, you need to know where it is coming from. A pressure test will aid in this.

leaking coolant

The coolant reservoir tanks on Kias are known to begin to crack on the bottom after a few years. Our Kia (Sorrento) at work was leaking coolant and this is where it was leaking. Very easy to replace the reservoir tank with OEM tank (approx. $30 for the tank). There is also a little plastic fitting on the coolant hoses at the back of the engine that is known to begin to leak. Leaks real bad from this location when the car is shut down.
