Common symptoms of a leaking radiator include:

Coolant loss: You may notice a in coolant levels over time.
Overheating: The engine may overheat due to insufficient coolant, causing the temperature gauge to rise.
Sweet smell: Coolant has a sweet odor, which may be noticeable inside the car if its leaking.
Puddles under the car: If the leak is significant, you may see coolant puddling on the ground beneath the car.

You should address any of these symptoms promptly to avoid engine damage.
