A couple of weeks ago during a cold snap (-20) I noticed a puddle of antifreeze under my van. It appeared to be from the drivers side of the radiator, but I can't see any leak, etc., and everything seems ok now. I added about a quart of antifreeze to the reservoir (It was down). Could it have been a thermostat (that appears OK) or cap problem which blew out the overfill? Thanks.
First suspect would be the radiator hose on that side - maybe the clamp is slightly loose. Slightly loose hose connections are real good at leaking only when you're not looking and be totally dry when you're trying to find the source of the leak (temperature and pressure dependent - sometimes they leak when hot, sometimes cold - whichever is the case when you're not looking at them). :)
