IF IT IS YOUR WATER PUMP LEAKING THERE IS A TELL TAIL HOLE RIGHT ON THE PUMP THAT DRIPS IF THE PUMP SEAL IS FAILING. IF THE WATER IS LEAKING FROM ABOVE THE PUMP IT IS LIKELY THE INTAKE MANIFOLD GASKET. THIS IS QUITE COMMON ON 4 LITRE ENGINES.IF THE LEAK IS NOT TO BAD I WOULD LEAVE IT,I RAN MY LIKE THAT FOR OVER 150,000 KMS. THE BILL TO REPAIR WOULD BE 500.00 DOLLARS EASY.
The coolant for a BMW x5 is placed into the coolant overflow tank on the left side of the engine compartment. It should be filled to the full mark when the engine is at operating temperature.
Faceing the car.On the left hand side you have a engine coolant reservoir bottle.If you are just going to add some coolant.Make sure when adding coolant it is a 50/50 mixture.Do not add engine coolant when the engine is hot. The cooling system in your vehicle is filled with Ford Extended Life Coolant F6AZ-19544-AA.DO NOT MIX WITH A GREEN-COLORED COOLANT.
On a 2000 Ford Ranger : With the engine cold the radiator should be filled to the seat for the radiator cap and the engine coolant reservoir should be filled to the cold mark
Probably, unless a cylinder has filled with engine coolant. In any case it is not a good idea to run an engine in that condition, if coolant mixes with the motor oil you can expect more damage to the engine.
Most 2000 GM cars were filled with the RED Dexcool coolant. Using the standard green fluid after the Dexcool has been used can lead to clogged coolant passages and destroy the engine.
Radiator full and coolant recovery tank filled to mark Radiator full and coolant recovery tank filled to mark
My low coolant light remains on eventhough I have filled the ressovor. what can I do?Found after removing and replacing the sensor and bottle still had error, finally drained radiator and added correct coolant mixture in radiator, indicator went away. Appear I had a weak mixture of coolant and water in radiator, which kept giving me the "ENGINE COOLANT LOW' I guess it really was low in coolantRead more: Why_does_your_jaguar_XJ8_say_engine_coolant_low_when_it_is_full
It is not suggested to put water in a Toyota Rav 4. The engine cooling system can get too hot and coolant is preferred. To pour coolant find the coolant reservoir and pour fluid until the max line is filled.
When you add engine coolant to a 2003 Jeep Grand Cherokee because the low coolant indicator has come on, you should add to the reserve tank and the radiator if they are low. Sometimes, just the reserve tank needs filled.
It is in the front behind the grill. It cannot be filled directly. Add coolant/ antifreeze to the "jug" on the passenger side of the engine compartment.
If you completely filled the cooling system and reservoir when changing the coolant, some will be forced out of the reservoir overflow when the engine gets hot and the coolant expands. If you suspect that there is a leak in the system, run the engine until it reaches operating temperature, and then shut it off. Observe all hoses and connections carefully after engine stops, as this is the period of highest pressure on the cooling system.
No , not to the top , there should be a mark for cold and hot or minimim / maximum something like that . Just maintain the coolant level up to the cold mark when the engine is cold
