6th Gen ('00-'05): Coolant sensor or...?
#1
Coolant sensor or...?
ok so recently my low coolant sensor has been going off, at one point it was going on and off, then i decided to add some coolant and it went away for like 3 days and then came back...now there isnt any visible leaking of coolant on the ground so im not sure what can this be, im guessing it is the sensor but i could be wrong and wanted to get some backup on this before i replace the sensor. thanks in advance guys

Make sure it is not leaking internally (is coolant low in the radio again?) If it's not leaking internally and not leaking externally then most likely it's the sensor
#3
well when i put some coolant in, at first i tried to put it directly in the radiator...coolant shot out, so i put it in the resevoir, what do you mean by internally? that thing where it makes the oil milky?
#4
internally meaning leaking into the oil and or combustion chamber. either milky oil or white smoke out the exhaust pipes. is the reservoir still filled or empty again?
#8
no not like to the top full, there is a full and low line on the reservoir tank, the full line is what im talking about.... either way if the same amount is still in the reservoir then change the sensor and your good to go

it has to be the sensor, i checked when i was at work and, the rad was full and the resevoir looked the same as well, im looking to do a nice flush so i will look that up here
