Hello, My Volvo overheated recently. We replaced the thermostat and refilled the car with coolant. However, now it leaks coolant somewhere. We cannot tell where it is going. Otherwise, the car runs fine.

Hi there,

You will need to get a cooling system pressure test done, this will locate any external coolant leaks, and get the pressure cap tested as well, start here.
