adamzan Posted April 14, 2011 Share Posted April 14, 2011 I would start with topping up the coolant. Also when was the thermostat last replaced? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JamesRich Posted April 17, 2011 Share Posted April 17, 2011 If the radiator doesn't stay full your cap could be bad. Also make sure the reservoir tank has coolant in it and the hose from the tank to the radiator has no leaks. James Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
