It should be all the time in the container. It has special marks MIN and MAX, the coolant level should not be lower than the MIN mark and not higher than MAX. You have to add coollant when the engine is cold.
In most cases a 50/50 mix of straight coolant and water is sufficient. Read the directions on the coolant container and adjust to your weather needs.
A 50/50 mix of water and a good quality antifreeze
Do not have your car on. First step is to make sure your car has enough engine coolant, if you are low, buy some at the store and put it in its proper place for your car(If you do not know where that is then consult your owner's manual for engine or engine coolant.) If that is not the problem, then it is possible that you have a leak somewhere from the coolant container to your engine. Either check for any possible holes or loose connections or take it into an auto repair shop.
To reset the coolant indicator on a 2007 Chevy Cobalt LS, first ensure that the engine is off and cooled down. Turn the ignition key to the "On" position without starting the engine. Press the gas pedal three times within five seconds, then turn the ignition off. This should reset the coolant level indicator. If the warning persists, check the coolant level and system for any issues.
The coolant should circulate through the entire water system.
Most vehicles have a coolant reservoir (a clear plastic tub) with a phrase "engine coolant only" printed on the cap. This is where you should add engine coolant.
there should be a clear white juglike thing that says coolant on the lid... look at the liquid level on the container
It should be on the bottom of the coolant reservoir. The container is held in place by two bolts. Remove the bolts and disconnect the sensor cable on the side of the container, then it should just lift out
Yes , on my 1995 Ford Explorer XLT there is a cold fill mark . When the engine is cold the coolant level should be up to the mark
Look on the side of the coolant overflow bottle. There should be a low mark for the coolant for a cool engine, and one for a hot engine.
it should be in one of the coolant lines leading up to the radiator.
Yes. There should always be some coolant in the overflow tank. Its level should rise when the engine warms up, and it should go back down when the engine cools.
