Just wondering if anyone can tell me what is about the oil pan on the left side of the car. When looking under the car and up at it, you have the oil pan that sites there and then the next part right about it that laps over near towards the rear of the car. My car is a V6 if that helps.
Reason I am asking is that over the past month or more I have had a small leak with my antifreeze. Took it by a couple of places and they said they could not find out what the problem was. They tried the pressure test and did not see any leaks in the hoses or seals. Both places told me it would be in the price of 400 bucks even to get down and dirty with it to try and trace the leak just due to the way the engine is set up.
The thing is sometimes I have to top the antifreeze off every couple days and then it goes a week or more before it tries to run hot again. There is no consistency to it.
I just do not know what to do, not a car guy and I can do this and that but the way things are now I can not afford to spend and arm and a leg on it. Got a guy that works on cars but he only takes cash and anywhere else will charge me 2 or 3 times the price but then I can charge it. Plus the 99 is getting to almost 200k for mileage and I can not justify spending too much on it to get it fixed. Plan on buying a truck from my dad when I get the cash saved up so that is another thing I can not justify dumping too much on the galant when thats a payment for the truck. So lost right now. With the age on the car and the mileage I could get this fixed and then something else goes wrong and I just keep dumping money. Okay sorry for my vent. Hope someone can help me.
