Coolant level is below âlowâ in the expansion tank, dealership service says this is normal? The coolant level should be filled between F and L marks on the side of the coolant reservoir when the engine is cool. If the coolant level is low, add enough distilled (deionized) water. Bring the level to F, but do not overfill. If frequent additions are required, see an authorized dealer for a cooling system inspection. When I checked the coolant level, the engine was still warm and not completely cold.

- Function of smooth muscles depends on the tissues where they are present.... In blood vessels, when the smooth muscles contract, they constrict the lumen of the blood vessels … (arteries) thus increasing the blood pressure, and when they relax, the lumen increases in diameter and thus brings down the blood pressure..

What are the repercusions of using normal antifreeze on a volkswagen rather then oem antifreeze? you need to use the G12, I think is what it is, coolant. My brother has a 2000 jetta and it uses the pink coolant and you can't mix them. I didn't think it would be different between 1 year, but whatever. My 07 Jetta needs the pink coolant as well and you can't mix them. Sorry if this was the wrong info.

This jug is 100% straight, so that means you need to add your own water (distilled water is best). MINI recommends a 50/50 mix and that will protect your MINI from -34 deg F (-37 deg C) up to 265 deg F (130 deg C). They also recommend a coolant flush every two to three years depending on conditions and model year, and this is even more important in the Gen 2 Turbo S cars since the coolant cools the turbo and the coolant cooks it self so quickly.

no coolant in overflow tank. bad? Sep 15, 2008 #9. It's an expansion tank. Modern cars don't run a void in the top of the radiator, they run a cooling system with no air space. The coolant heats up, expands into the tank, and sucks back as it cools. Do not try to run a street car without one. #9.

- Coolant/Antifreeze can't normally or easily get sucked into the exhaust as the exhaust is under pressure leaving the cylinder. However, it can get sucked into the intake path and/or pulled in at the head gasket during the intake stroke when vacuum is created and/or by pressure from the cooling system.

- Sometimes air pockets form in the cooling system when the coolant has been drained. The will result is engine overheating. This happens even after the coolant has been added and the cooling system appears to be full. Air can enter the cooling system after changing the water pump or lower radiator hose.

How Car Cooling Systems Work Cutaway of radiator cap and reservoir. ­­The radiator cap actually increases the boiling point of your coolant by about 45 F (25 C). How does this simple cap do this? The same way a pressure cooker increases the boiling temperature of water. The cap is actually a pressure release valve, and on cars it is usually set to 15 psi.
