My car kept dying everytime i stopped well it started smoking really bad and i noticed my tempurature gage was over the hott, there is water in it and oil , when i got a ride back home , there in my driveway were i was parked was anti freeze all over, it has been a really hott day, so what could be wrong how much will it cost to fix and how do i know it wont happen again? Im a single mom of three no husband so i have no clue.
 
First, you will actually have to open your hood. The usual things are a bad water pump, a broken radiator or heater hose, or a punctured radiator. Try to run the engine with the hood open after filling up system with water. The leak should be obvious. Sometimes just adding water to the cold radiator will show you which component has failed. You MUST use genuine Toyota coolant in this car. Otherwise, the cooling system will deteriorate. Figure out the leak first. Find and trust a local auto repair shop. Get an estimate and e-mail me back with what was found. I will guide you through this.
