Radiator fluid circulates through the engine block and the cylinder head. If the block or head has a crack or a broken gasket fluid will come from that.
Anywhere in the cooling/heating system. The connections are the most likely places
Most likely it's automatic transmission fluid, check to two metal lines going into the bottom of the radiator to confirm this.
Probably any normal thing like not enough Radiator Fluid or something is wrong with your radiator or a head gasket leak could cause the radiator fluid loss. Does this Help?
Most Likely you have a leak from the transmission cooling tank on your radiator to the antifreeze portion of the radiator. Jeff
What would happen is when your vechile begins to run and gets warmed up your fluid will splatter all inside the hood of the vechile and your fluid will run low and it will crack your radiator.
To keep the transmission fluid cool. Without one it would overheat.
Not quite. Anti-freeze is the undiluted liquid that you mix with water (usually 50:50). The proper term for the mixture is "Coolant". I would say that "coolant" and "radiator fluid" are synonymous.
Bring your vehicle to a garage is what I would do so you can let it thaw and refill it with antifreeze because there must be water in the radiator
Connected to the radiator.
Thermostat stuck closed.
broken radiator
A cracked radiator would leak the fluid out, leaving no coolant for your engine which would cause your engine to overheat and be destroyed pretty quickly. So the answer is NO.
no the red clay like stuff is transmission fluid in your radiator probably leaking from your transcooler
