Best Answer

If it is a water cooled vehicle the is yes

It its broadest sense the engine & radiator are the storage containers.

More specifically the expansion bottle (also known as a header tank) which is connected to the vehicles radiator could be classed as a water container.

Can you add water to a radiator?

Check the owners manual for your car. Older cars run water only, middle aged cars run 50% water and 50% anti freeze and newer cars run 100% anti freeze. Once you know what you car requires just wait until you engine is cold, take off the radiator cap or the the fill cap of the plastic overflow container and add to the full line on the container. The above answer is totally incorrect, and you should ignore it. The person that posted this does not know what they are talking about. Older cars do not run pure water and newer cars do not run pure anti-freeze. All vehicles require a 50/50 mix of antifreeze and distilled water. In extremely cold climates a 60/40 mix may be necessary. Running pure water or pure anti-freeze are both ansking for trouble. Pure water provides no protection whatsoever. And pure anti-freeze will freeze at a higher temperature than a mix.

Should you check the transmission fluid with the car on or off?

Off, but the engine should be warm. (wrong) Read below: It all depends on the make and model of your car. Some cars require you to check it with the engine running (could be in park or neutral). Some cars you check with the engine off but motor warm and on newer cars 2006-2012 a dealership has to check it.
