SOURCE: coolant is leaking from hose/pipe under coolant reservoir
It sounds like the outlet pipe from rear of water pump,which takes the hose from the rear plastic pipe, which is very common problem in Daewoo Leganza/Nubira/Lanos Australian 2.0/2.2 DOHC engines.Either the hose itself, the plastic pipe, or the alloy outlet for the hose on rear of water pump, which is subject to corrosion.You will have to confirm where leak is from, if it is from hose to rear of water pump, you can try re-clamping hose or replacing hose, if it is corrosion of that outlet,the part is available @$40-60 new, but it is a fairly major job because timing cover timing belt and then water pump must be removed...it is a difficult workspace in front of and behind that engine,the manifold and alternator are both in the way , it may be possible to do it in car but you may even be better off removing engine to work on.Good news is that this is a great opportunity to replace T-belt and water pump and pulleys at the same time..Sorry its not that great a news, its not a very easy DIY job, but it is do-able if you have some experience and tools.
SOURCE: Lower radiator hose ties into
take the old one off then with it in your hand visit the auto factor and they will have one
SOURCE: Daewoo Leganza coolant change
it would seem that the radiator drain plug is low enough to drain the block as well,give it a try.
