A variety of liquids are necessary to keep your vehicle running safely. Unfortunately, it is not that uncommon for a leak to occur. How soon you need to bring your car into the shop depends on what fluid is leaking.
Gasoline is an easy option to identify thanks to its smell. Gas leaks are urgent because they can cause larger problems. They are also wasteful and will have you filling up more often than you should. Motor oil is another easy one to identify. It ends up puddling underneath the front of the car and will be brown or black in color. Oil leaks can have simple fixes, but they need to be addressed soon.
Antifreeze usually leaks near the front of the vehicle, although it can also happen near your exhaust pipe. If your car does not have enough antifreeze, your engine can be severely damaged. At Ramey Toyota, we think the easiest way to identify this leak is the smell, which will be sweet.
