Q: Oil and coolant leak
A few months ago my car began to leak coolant. It wasn't bad at first,I would only have to fill it every few days. I took it to the shop to get another problem fixed and when i got my car back, it was leaking very bad not only coolant but engine oil as well. I had a neighbor take a look and told me it was the water filter or gasket im not sure which I took a picture of the part but i still have no idea what part to buy. Would you mind helping me find what part I need? I can send pics of it to you and maybe you can tell me what it is. Thank you
