when i looked previously under i seen a stream going down the middle of the belt and then it would be flowing down and then dripping from the oil pan, i have inches of snow right now so it’s hard to get up under it, i noticed the leak once i replaced the thermostat and started to refill, it’s definitely coolant leaking, before the car went down it would bounce up and down in temperature and level out sometimes to where it needed to be but i figured that was just the thermostat, i don’t think it was leaking prior to the thermostat change since i filled it up about a week before i did the thermostat and it wasn't leaking at allyou don't need to remove the cover on a 420a. you can probably see it by just getting under the car but you might need to remove the A/c belt and move the compressor forward a little if its in the way.
