Subject: Help with Pontiac Grand Am engine problem


Manitoba
My son has an 04 Grand Am with the 3.4l v6. It seemed to suddenly loose coolant but couldn't see a leak. First thing I tried was to top up the coolant and take it for a spin. Within a 1/2 mile it was getting warm and did see coolant leaking from the right side of engine compartment. So we were hoping for just a hose or water pump but couldn't see it leaking while running in the shop. Topped it up again and drove a bit to add more coolant but when i opened the cap it puked coolant and Im guessing oil (brown color) out the overflow tank. So bad news maybe that its internal engine issues. What confuses me is that I didn't think it was coming out the overflow the first time I test drove it. Is it likely a head gasket? It has relatively low miles but engine work may make it not worth fixing.
