Hello everyone, I have this ram 1500 2011 4.7 v8 for 20k km so far and, I noticed coolant leak 3 times for the past 2 months. And i’m confused now, because I went to first mechanic and he said that it’s blown head gasket and leaking externally, the second mechanic did a leak test with pressure and no leak was found but there was some coolant left on the engine and he said that it’s front timing cover.
So yeah, the only weird thing for me is that sometimes it leaks, sometimes it’s not. today we put about 2.5 litres of coolant in radiator, because I checked only coolant reservoir before and it was full but radiator was 2.5 litres short.
As I understood It’s leaking on top and dripping down to the oil pan and I also could see some of it on the oil filter.
I took a detailed video of what is going on over there and uploaded it on youtube. https://youtube.com/shorts/hRYM9GYhnug?si=3FrZvowF3iFQQqqJ
Any help will be appreciated, thank you!
