Have you changed the timing belt yet? Is the coolant leak in the front of the motor in the water pump area?

Need i say codes?

i had 2 things that caused bad coolant leaks. one was the coolant flange and one was the thermostat. i had a starting problem that was supposedly caused by a dirty throttle body and intake manifold.
