Hi all.
I have a 2006 jeep liberty. A few months ago a bit after taking it to an oil change place the low coolant light came on. The leak was quite severe forming puddles of coolant under the coolant tank and requiring a few containers of coolant. Then it just stopped for several months. Now I had another episode of the coolant puddle under the tank. The only clue I have is the more coolant I put in the tank the more likely the leak. Any ideas?
Thanks

Head gasket leak....combustion gases over pressurizing the overflow tank.

Mine was intermittent at first and only leaked when working the engine hard. Tame drive around town it would not leak.
