    I went to Nissan, and that's when the coolant started leaking. They said it was either the thermostat housing or the block. I was like "shit"... They charged too much to change the thermostat housing- like $320. So I bought the part and had my cousin change it. However, it's still doing it. Do you think it could be the block? I don't think it could be that, but I don't know why Nissan would have said that.

    It cant be the water pump because its contained behind the front covers, Your oil pan would fill up with coolant if it was leaking.
    But like said before, there are so many possibilities as to where it is coming from.
    What area of the engine is it leaking from??
