Engine Cooling problem

My antifreeze leaks, but only while I'm driving, since there is no leak while the car is off.

I know because of the fact that the heater didn't work, so I had a eureka moment and noticed that there was no antifreeze when I had just put some in a week before.

Please help me figure out what can cause this, so I don't get ripped off at the mechanics?

Hi there,

You will have to get the system pressure tested to find the leaks. do this first.
