Change the coolant and thermostat then report back.
ok, I did what you said and the overheat problem gone . The car is not leaking at all after I turn on the car and just sit there for 15 mins (which already reach the normal working temperature). So I decide to test drive a little bit for about 5 miles. After I parked the car and check under the car, the same spot as I shown in the pics has coolant dripping again. Well, the car now is drivable but I just want to know where is leaking so I can fix. From my understanding there is only three places where coolant can leak from, upper and lower hoses and radiator. Anywhere else could leak coolant? Thanks.
