Re: Bottom of the radiator leak?

It doesn't look like it's coming from the top, from the middle, or from a certain side. I just know it collects enough to make a small puddle under my car every time I park and it stops leaking after the pressure is out of the system (or at least it doesn't leak enough to drip).

The leaking started within the past week or so. The radiator appears to be fairly new. So, I'm not real sure.
