No.
A bad freeze plug will leak coolant and cause the engine to overheat.
Coolant leak? Check your heater core.
Yes, If to much leaks out this will cause the engine to over heat, smoke and or stall hence the name engine COOLant :)
A faulty thermostat in a 2001 BMW 325CI can cause a coolant leak. The coolant may be leaking out a crack in the thermostat or through a warped edge. In some cases the problem may be just a bad gasket and not actually a problem with the thermostat at all.
No. It would leak coolant.
timing is wrong, coolant leak, bad radiator or thermostat, head gasket....
It could.It could.
Yes, a bad heater core can cause antifreeze to leak under the dash. The heater core is responsible for transferring heat from the engine coolant to the cabin, and if it develops a leak, coolant can escape and drip onto the floorboard. This can result in a wet carpet and potentially lead to further issues if not addressed promptly. Additionally, a leaking heater core can cause a sweet smell inside the vehicle and may lead to engine overheating if coolant levels drop significantly.
There are a few things that can cause a coolant leak but in your case it is probably the water pump. When a water pump starts to go bad it will leak coolant from the bottom.
Only when they are bad.
It must. I am having my '94 Camaro's timing gasket changed for just that reason.
Well, oil leaking onto the starter is a common cause of it going bad. Have the starter tested, if possible, then replace if bad. You'll also want to correct the oil leak, usually valve covers leaking.
