Hi

check the steel piping near the thermostat cuz i kena before ... last time we couldnt locate the leak until they opened up so many things and found the steel piping rusted and erroded ... and i might have a spare antenna motor for sale ... will have to check first tho

1)Could it be you’ve over filled the radiator spare tank? And the return pressure is push some water/coolant back out when you stop driving. This happens especially after a spirited driving session.

Take a look and see if the water is coming from the left hand side of the car where the radiator cap and spare tank is. For the rear end of the car there is no other opportunity for water to flow out, unless your rubber hoses connecting your under car tubes are leaking. If so you should be loosing coolant constantly.

2) The auto antenna will eventually die after a while, most of us already switch to an in car unit. But if you really want one, try checking out some half cut but bring yours along so you can switch and pay a small amount for it. The price will depend on your nego. skills as items like these really has not price tag to them.

Its common for characteristics of rubber and plastic parts to deteriorate over time and does not somehow become loose
