My 2004 Kia Sorento has developed a coolant leak. It is on the top left side at the seal where the top of the radiator and the body meet. Will a sealant solve this or does the radiator need to be replaced

You need to replace the radiator, at least partially if it is only the top tank that is leaking, which requires a specialist shop to do.
