Dodge Dart 2013 1.4L Turbo...many fluid leaks

[foghorn67]

My 2003 Maxima didn't leak a drop at 130,000 miles when I traded it in for the Camry Hybrid I'm driving now.

Yeah, I have 77k on my Chevy Malibu....not a damn drop. Nobody should expect leaks for a long time.

Yep, here are some NGK Laser Iridiums I replaced in an Accord with 125k miles. Car was still running great at the time these were replaced.

And wow, I still cannot believe the OP paid the dealer $300!! for the spark plug change on a 4-cylinder engine. That's seems like a robbery even by dealer standards.

Final price on the plugs was 209CAD + 55CAD on labor. Still pretty high imo but I asked someone I know who owns the same car as me and he paid the same price...but still I agree with you.

Okay so I found out myself that I might have a small coolant leak. I have a 2013 SXT 2.0L (NA). The coolant level was about a quarter inch below the Min. line in the coolant reservoir. The coolant itself is an OAT, 10-year/150,000 mile, and about $30 after tax at the dealership for a gallon. It's got a slightly purple color. I topped it off this morning because I do not have time to have them look at it.

I cannot find the leak in the engine bay nor the driveway. I'm just under 35,000 miles. I will be watching the coolant level, and next week when I'm not as busy I will definitely take it to the dealer for a check on this issue. Many online point to the water thermostat gasket area, which is on the passenger side. I don't see anything there though, maybe it's a head gasket failure? So much for the 10 year formula.

Edit: It's a slow leak, still at the line I filled it to today and I drove about 60 miles today.
