Thank you so much! I was one that got stranded last week. Same symptoms, but I could not find any leak anywhere. (Started about 137K miles) I'm guessing the coolant was evaporating on the engine. Well, the engine finally overheated and shut down on the interstate last week. After it cooled down, I got some more coolant in it and started back up. When I was able to pull over somewhere safe, I popped the hood and coolant spraying from that valve like old faithful. Your 2015 2.5L regular maintenance videos have been such a huge help over the last few hours. This one being the biggest help!
Hello Dave Changed the Tee on my 2019 Colorado today. No problems with exception of releasing and moving the GM hose clamps. A total PITA without the proper tool. Now I know why You changed the clamps. Thanks for the heads up.
Its so high up on the system just try to catch the little bit of coolant that comes out. Obviously if you are near being due to replace then yes replace the whole coolant

That stinks about breaking down but happy my videos are helping! Thanks

Does that engine have a timing belt or chain?
Chain
Good !
I assume to replace this part you'd first have to drain the coolant?
