The "check coolant level" message will come on when the coolant level is low in the overflow tank. If the message stays on after the tank is filled, make sure the sensor on the front bottom is connected. If the connection is O.K., then lightly tap on the side of the overflow tank with a soft rubber mallet. If the message persists after driving the car a couple of days, replace the overflow tank.
What is an overflow tank?
An overflow tank is a bottle that holds coolant that expands and leaves the radiator under driving conditions. The Coolant will go back into the radiator as needed.
What is the difference between a Coolant Overflow Tank and a radiator overflow bottle?
A coolant overflow tank and a radiator overflow bottle serve similar purposes but are distinct components. The coolant overflow tank is designed to collect excess coolant that expands from the radiator when the engine heats up, preventing pressure buildup. In contrast, the radiator overflow bottle typically refers to a specific type of tank that captures overflow from the radiator directly, allowing for the coolant to return to the system as it cools. Both components help maintain the proper coolant level, but they may be used in different cooling system designs.

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.
