Found my missing coolant :(

Sitting right down in the oil. No external leaks that i can find. So that leaves me with internal i guess. None of the spark plugs are steam cleaned so this isnt looking good for me.

That scares the S*&t out of me. I ran right out and checked mine. I've noticed I'm a bit down on coolant. Added a 1/2 gallon so far. I hadn't checked it since I bought the car in October and noticed a gurgling sound coming from the heater core last week. Whew, no milk shake on the dip stick. Nothing on the ground and I haven't seen any white smoke. Not sure where it is going to. Hope your fix isn't to expensive.

Im going back to stock and re-flashing my ecu. Then the car is going to Chevy. Hopefully powertrain picks it up. If not, sell the car and buy a cts-v

I would be hoping for no powertrain with the vision of a V in the future.

You just sometimes have to make lemon aid out a lemon sometimes. LOL!

I hope it works out for what ever is best for you!

If you think it is in the crankcase, your dipstick would indicate such.
