Thank you. Good advice and explanation for a system many may misunderstand. I would add that technically it's ok if the overflow is low/empty as long as the radiator is full. However it's not the optimal way to keep the car running. If you check the Subaru manual, it will tell you to check the overflow tank level when the car is cold (fully cooled down over night ideally). If the coolant level is at or below the low mark, fill it with coolant until you reach the full mark. That overflow tank serves two functions. It is an overflow tank and a gauge. When the car is warmed up, coolant will expand and flow into the overflow tank. When the car cools down, the coolant will contract and the radiator will suck back in coolant from the overflow tank. If the overflow is empty, it's sucking air in instead of coolant as designed. It's not the end of the world, but not ideal either. The tank also allows you to take a quick look under the hood and see if you're losing coolant or not without popping the radiotor cap off every time. It's only accurate when completely cold. When it's warm, it will go above the full mark, but that's fine. It's not going to spill out. If it does spill out, it means you were doing track days. If your tank is that empty and you fill it to the full mark when it's cold, don't be surprised if the coolant level drops after a few drive cycles. Keep topping it up while it's stone cold. Run the heat in the cabin to help get any air trapped in the system out. It'll eventually settle to the full mark where it should be when stone cold. If you're radiator is full to the top and after about 2-4 top ups of the overflow it's still going low, you may have a problem.
Good point but can you please tell me what kind of Problem? I have a new radiator and it's doing the same thing, I mean I popped it up 1,2 times (both the radiator and the bottle/reservoir). I love my car😊
I'm very thankful for this video. I'm that guy who always keeps my fluids "full". I was finding coolant under my car in the garage after it had been parked overnight and this is probably why.
Bro, I'm a literal over thinker and most definitely I thought something was wrong with my car. Lol, but I must say without a doubt your video was very clear and clarified. Thank you
Thank you so much! This was so clear! I called my dealer and though they did explain everything you are showing in this video, I still felt I needed to see it! Thank you! Thank you! Thank you!
thank you for the video. My car once lost water and got heated. I ve got white smoke from the exhaust. i got to the technician who filled it up with fluid checked out for leaks (didnt find any) also replaced the radiator cap. So he got suspicious of the fluids going into the engine. I drived the car for about 2 weeks. Everything looked normal driving was like nothing ever happened no heating and radiator properly full. The only problem was that the overflow tank used to get lower as much as the car was moving. That happened little by little needing lets say a distance of 100kms until it got at low level. When i filled up it got low again after 100kms. So finally i got my car for engine service. The check up showed destroyed gasket and cylinders. We replaced the engine cylinders and pistons for a full reconditioning and replaced the overflow tank and radiator as well. After that car was again driving and moving fine and radiator is always full. But the overflow tank still loses coolant at a same pace as before. That is a 5 months situation with me filling up the tank with water or coolant. Although technican told me that i don't have to do so. I am afraid of loosing coolant from the tank and then from the radiator during a trip and then get any serious damage again. We did a double check for coolant leak and didnt find any. Replaced again the cap.Technician insists there is no fluid pulled back in engine. But what does this coolant getting lower mean? Could that be the reason for the heating at first place? So i may run on same problems again? Or an empty overflow tank is just a normal situation as long radiator is full? Unfortunately never checked how overflow tank functioned before the heating. So it is like a mistery..
You need to be careful. Not every vehicle works this way. Some european brands (fiat for example), dont have a radiator cap. The radiator is a completely sealed unit, and the expansion tank is directly attached to the radiator, and the radiator and expansion tank both get pressurised when the engine runs. The cap on the expansion tank then works as a radiator cap and has a spring loaded release valve and seals. With this design, the level in the expansion tank is directly related to the level inside the radiator, and if the level gets below the minimum line (and they mark is as minimum rather than low), it means your radiator isn't full.
@legend-jp5to you cant.. you either add some and see if the level rises in the expansion bottle, or you open the drain under the radiator..also because it's a sealed pressurised system, it should never need topping up. If the collant is low, It means there's either a leak, a head gasket failure, or a expansion tank cap fault.
@@cartouchator I have a Renault master van 2020 and the coolant somehow disappeared just after 2 weeks I took to the mechanic to pressure test it he said their was coolant in the system and the system holds pressure so their wasn't leak but their was air pocket because the previous mechanic didn't flash it properly so I told him to flash it properly and remove the air Pocket and top up again just 2 weeks later the resviour seems empty you can see some trices still remain at the bottom but it's way bellow the minimum amount I owned this car from new and I had no clue it didn't actually come with seperate radiator cap to check, so now I'm in this dilemma where I have no clue if the radiator is actually full of coolant or if it's low as the resviour, I can't see any leak its been pressure tested and their wasn't any leak but somehow the coolant is going somewhere, everything else was checked and the head gasket is good no white smoke no Milky oil, the car drives normal no misfire no overheating but it seems the coolant is just vanishing. What do you think could cause something like this?
My car is having the same problem I filled it yesterday between the two lines, just a bit ago I checked it. The coolant was down to the bottom line so I topped it off
No need to as explained in the video, when the engines hot the overflow bottle should be at the full mark. When it's cold the coolant contracts and makes it look like it needs topping up.😉🤙
Totally needed this because this early morning when I got off work, my heater was blowing cold air on one side and hot air by the driver side. Researched it up and this was one my issues. My coolant reservoir is low but also my radiator coolant is also low. I do not see any leaks or sign of color under or below the bottom of the car. My guess is it probably evaporated. Tomorrow I'm going to to drain whats left of it and refill new coolant. I'll be sure to run the car to cycle the air bubbles until there's no more bubbles. If I miss anything else please let me know for this is my 2nd time changing it. Thanks for the helpful video, it helped me see and understand things more clearly.
Only my radiator is low my overflow tank is a little bit over full when it’s cold, but my van got hot the other day because it was low on antifreeze. I’m constantly putting antifreeze in my radiator. My radiator is only a couple years old. My water pump is a couple years old. There’s no antifreeze on the ground. I’m not blowing white smoke and my oil is not mixed.
It’s part of your radiator most likely and is pressurized. Don’t open it when the coolant is hot wait overnight. Most likely need to get a new one or have a shop re crimp it. You have a coolant leak most likely from there. Very common
Today my car was parked , it said something about engine overheating due to AC ,I popped the hood and was very hot but didn’t see nothing weird , coolant was good but there was water under , can anyone help ?
BUT WHAT if expansion tank is way above maximum line, and radiator starts at full immediately after replacement radiator and fill, but the next day overflow reservoir tank is way above maximum level adn coolant in radiator lowers so cant be seen. So i siphoned off coolant out of overflow tank, then filled radiator to top level again. Went a couple cycles like that. Confuisng. 2008 nissan xterrra, which has a pressurized coolant reservoir overflow cap, non pressurized radiator cap.
WRONG : Full is where you should have your coolant level when the engine is dead cold. (actually anywhere between the full and low mark, but you should keep it at the full mark and be done with it) You have full mentioned to indicate that you should not have coolant over this line when cold. The rest of the reservoir above the full mark is there for the hot/expansion coolant to be allowed without overflowing to the ground. It has nothing to do with hot or cold, so this is why you don't see these terms on the reservoir.
@@EthanOtton hey sorry to annoy you but ive just opened my radiator cap (2004 nissan pulsar radiator is somewhat new) and the radiator has no coolant in it at all only in the resovior tank there is coolant at low level and this is checking the car cold ive never seen a radiator with no coolant in it do i fill it up ? how so ? i cant see any leaks the hoses all look good
Excellent video, to the point, which everyone wants 🎉👍. I have a few questions, my reservoir tank gets empty even though I fill it up to that High Mark and the radiator shows up the full coolant (after the drive and when the car isn't hot), when I open up the radiator cap. Is it normal? The temperature nowadays in my city is very warm. I am confused about the reservoir, there might be some leaking in the radiator that consumes up the radiator water and then the radiator takes water from the reservoir?
It’s probably spitting the extra coolant on the ground, if you fill the reservoir up to the top when cold, it will expand and overfill the reservoir and dump the excess coolant on the ground
I got my radiator and this stuff repaired last year. I fill up that plastic tank to the “Full” marker snd I got my car leaking coolant at the front. May so much coolant blown off my radiator. Drops come from the very front. Car rans properly no overheat. It is a Rav1 First Geb.
I over filled my reservoir 50% and it don't boil over. If it boils over you have a thermostat that is not opening. At 120k miles coolant O rings leak causing Subarus to slowly lose coolant. A new cars coolant reservoir is filled to the middle of L and H.
My 09 Scion Tc, I believe has been leaking coolant. After I refill it, coolants gone after 20’minute drive, Theres no leak on the tray under the engine, The oils also clean, So im not too sure what the problem is, Radiator looks a little corroded but not sure..
I have full expansion tank but the radiator is empty everyday when I remove the pressure cap in the morning to check it. Haven’t seen any leaks. Is it okay to refill it?
It’s fine to refill, you need to find out where your coolant is going. Might be a leak or might be going into the oil cooler or engine oil, or out the exhaust
@@KurtofTrades I changed the radiator cap. I also used k-seal before but don’t know if I should keep using it. Do you have a video that demonstrates how to check for these leaks you mentioned?
dude, how would my coolant tank dumb it on the ground? i can't even see it because it's so dirty. so, your saying the hose doesn't connect to anything?
Some wrong information here. My SUV and most newer vehicles do not have a radiator cap. It is all done through the overflow which is pressurized. In this video, you said it is not, but that is not the case in all vehicles.
Add to 'full' or 'Cold' line ASAP when engine is completely cold. Monitor and see if its still going down. If so then check for a leak. If no visible leak and engine is still losing coolant then its most likely leaking mixing with engine oil. Major issue.
That means your radiator cap isn't working. There is a valve there to allow the extra coolant to return to the radiator as it cools down. Try a new, correct, OEM radiator cap.
Why would you take it to Walmart There no ment to help you on your car everything cheaper at Walmart you just have to know what your getting for your car don’t blame the employees for you not knowing what goes in your car that’s what AutoZone is for that’s why everything is a bit more there they know what parts and liquids can go it what parts
**Coolant Dilution**If water is being mixed with the coolant, it can dilute the color. This often happens if there is a leak in the cooling system that allows water to enter or if water is added directly to the coolant reservoir instead of the proper coolant mixture.
@ thx Juan actually this happens to my lx570 coolant keep changing and becoming colorless like drinking water maybe previously the shop didn’t took all old coolant from the system and some of the water kept inside the block (it was normal water) because i have heater hose leak and all coolant leaks out so i put normal water just to drive my car to the shop
