Hey Guys,
Wanted to update information on my coolant leak (just in case you couldn't contain your
curiosity).

According to the maintenance invoice, "Fluid found on Alternator and top of starter
caused by coolant manifold leaking at water pump."

They replaced the water pump and accompanying gaskets, along with coolant. What's
interesting is that the first pump they received was damaged, so the maintenance took
longer than expected.

Had a slight smell after driving her home but I didn't see any evidence of fluid. Sprayed out
under hood to clean up any residual coolant that may have been lingering around but
haven't driven her since. Winter has decided to arrive rather suddenly.

Everything was covered under warranty. No questions.
