Hi guys!
Can anyone help me with a coolant issue. I had to have my radiator replaced in January because the old one had a crack in it.
The new one is a Nissens one not an OEM one (it was £65) I replaced the rad cap with a Mugen one.
However, Ive noticed the coolant level in the reservoir (or is it an expansion tank??) is always at minimum. I've topped it up with coolant concentrate to the maximum now its the winter twice in the past two weeks and almost immediately the level drops back down to minimum.
Im worried I've got a leak. Right down the bottom of the radiator the I've notice some liquid and some rust/corrosion. It is damp out now and the car is 15 years old so i don't know whether this just to be expected but I am concerned there is an issue.
I should point out the car runs and drives absolutely fine. So I don't know if there is a problem here at a all!!! Is there an easy way to find out in their is a small leak?
Thanks
