Title: engine coolant problems Post by fudy on 09. Feb 2011 at 20:27
driving home tonight and there was a change in engine note and a bit of steam, then while i was at the lights anti freeze steam came bellowing from under the bonnnet!! :'( it's lost all the coolant in the header tank.!? the car gave me a oil level warning on the display this morning so i topped it up before i set off from work tonight an spilled a good bit so i thought it was that burning off. too dark now i will have to have a look tommorow. it dont sound good though :'(

sounds like the heater bypass valve, but a visual chack in daylight should confirm. :y

it could be any of the engine hoses. I had a top radiator hose blow a 6" split on my Senator. I'd not realised it was that big till later on when I turned up with my temp hose bandage. :-? ;D ;D ;D

It is my understanding that "owner error" may be involved ... :)

Owner Error is a bit harsh....... Assistant error is closer to the mark :-X :-X ::) ::) :D :D |
