Coolant leak ?

[VXNIT]

I have found no evidence of leak on top of motor, appears to be behind plasitc fornt motor cover, black plastic with timing marks on it. So with that said, would that eliminate O ring possibility and limit to water pump?

Also, will pressure test determine origin? I am under waranty but want to be sure before I go to dealer and they try to scam me with all it is this adn it isn't covered bull**** I eem to always get read whild there.

Sounds like water pump to me too.

Don't waste you time/money on the pressure test. You've already mentioned that it is a 'weep' type leak and not a steady drip so the pressure test prolly won't show anything (IMHO).

Now for the big question: Is it time for a timing belt change. A lot of the work to replace the water pump is the same as for the timing belt change so it's usually recommended to do both at the same time.
