Vehicle may overheat (low coolant)
Engine may freeze in cold weather (protection from freezing not adequate)
If it gets cold enough the coolant will freeze and crack the block if there is no antifreeze.
50/50 Mix is more than enough for Germany.
Yes, if your vehicle is low on antifreeze, there may not be enough to fill the heater core, and you wont get any heat. When the heat stops working in your car, antifreeze/coolant should be the first thing you check.
the gas tank is probably damaged possibly the AC unit of the car dripping from condensation, see if the fluid has a smell, if not. i wouldn't worry, unless you only put water in your radiator instead of antifreeze
Yes, if your low on antifreeze, there may not be enough to fill the heater core, and you wont get any heat. If your heat is not blowing that should be the first thing you check.
The type of car antifreeze that is safest to the environment is propylene glycol antifreeze. While it is still not totally safe, it is less toxic than other antifreeze.
My dad puts antifreeze on his car.
no but antifreeze in oil will eat the bearings
We always renew the antifreeze in our car before winter.
the antifreeze runs through all your water lines in your car . . . . you put it in your water tank or radiator
No, but antifreeze has corrosion inhibitors in it's formula. These help to stop corrosion forming internally, and will also protect the head gasket from corroding. Antifreeze added to the water in your cooling system lowers the freezing point of the coolant, preventing the liquid from freezing in the cold winter. It also raises the boiling point of the coolant. If you drive your car with water and no antifreeze, your car will heat up and the water will get hot enough to boil over. With antifreeze, the coolant will continue to do its job of keeping the engine from overheating which can result in damage to the engine.
alternator is most likely too weak, not damaged,just not strong enough for that car.
