      New to the forum

      So glad I found this forum. Bought my Aveo used and have spent a small fortune fixing the little problems. I have a question. Can someone tell me what the black rubber valves that are on either side of the underside of the radiator are for? Trying to attach a pic but don't know if I did it right

      Those are mounting posts for the radiator. That is how the radiator is mounted to the car. The rubber grommets help eliminate vibration from the fan.

      Also, welcome to the site!

      Any idea why I would have a pinkish liquid coming out of it. My coolant is green so it isn't that. Someone told me it could be fluid someone spilt under hood mixing with water from AC pan

      The original coolant was orangish so maybe the pinkish is old coolant stains before the green coolant was installed.
