I just bought a 2007 Malibu Maxx 3.5 L yesterday. I noticed it was leaking something but the owner assured me it was just the air conditioner running. Well I got it home and realized that it was leaking coolant the leak appears to be occurring just below the exhaust manifold. The leak almost looks like it's coming out of a nut. I am not a mechanic and I do not know what this nut is for or if coolant can even leak out of it.

 

That Is Soooo Not Kool...Leaks Dont Happem Over Nite
..The Guy You Bought It From Knew About This Leak...Get A Mechanics Evaluation, And I Would Ask For Either A Refund Or Some Cash Back For Repairs...This Happened To Me Years Ago...Bought A Saturn...Next Day, I Saw A Milkshake In The Coolant...Cracked Head....I Was Ripped Off $3,500...These Days I Inspect Like Crazy...If The Seller Doesnt Like It, Or Acts Nervous, I Walk Away...
