Coolant level??

Tanong lang mga tsikoteers...

Is the Coolant level ba always steady after you pour coolant on the reservoir??
I notice mine is getting lower or about to be empty in few days time..

What i know my coolant is the concentrate type not the one mix with water at 50/50 solution.. so i presume that the radiator just get some from it and return it back after the temp not so high anymore...correct me if i'm wrong..TIA..

WBR,

When you checked your coolant level, its your engine hot or cold?

AFAIK its a 50/50 solution mixed with distilled water.

can you say that again? nawawalan ba ng coolant solution yung cooling system (yun ba tinatanong mo hehe)?

if you put concentrated coolant into the system, it will disperse into the solution already present in the system (hindi nagdadagdag-bawas yung radiator depending on the engine temp hehe). it's best to mix the coolant concentrate with distilled water first before putting it in the system

on a new car? hmm, ipa-check mo yan, baka may leak somewhere in the system. abnormal yun ganyan kabilis maubusan ng coolant

well in bimmers there's a kalt(cold) line wherein if ur engine is cold then the coolant should match that line, and when the engine's running * optimal temp the coolant rises a few inches..i think. maybe it has a few similarities to urs
