THE ENGINE HAS BEEN LOSSING COOLANT SINCE THE DAY THAT I ACQUIRED THE CAR, MARCH 18, 2000. THERE IS ALSO A RATTLE/CLICKING IN THE ENGINE WHEN IT IS OPERATING COLD, BEFORE WARM UP IS COMPLETED. I SPOTTED A COLLANT LEAK ON THE DRIVERS SIDE OF THE ENGINE NEAR AND JUST BELOW THE ENGINE HEADGASKET AREA. THIS COULD LEAD TO COOLANT LEAKING ON THE GROUND AND CAUSING POLLUTION IF THE LEAK GETS WORSE. I HAVE TAKEN THE CAR TO THE DEALER FOR EVALUATION. *AK
