joelufc20 Posted November 24, 2011 Share Posted November 24, 2011 you will have a tiny leak somewhere, 1 litre a week over 300 miles means a very small leak. try a bit of dye in the coolant then run the engine for half hour or so. the leaking bit will get hot expand and leak, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Project Civic Posted January 27, 2012 Share Posted January 27, 2012 Head gasket I say.I had a different problem but I'm sure it will be the head gasket if you have tried everything else.Here is the link to my reply on a different thread.viewtopic.php?f=52&t=8594&hilit=overheatingProject Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BedOX Posted January 28, 2012 Share Posted January 28, 2012 I have the same problem, doesnt seem to be a leak anywhere, the reservoir empties out in about 2 weeks but there always seems to be coolant in the radiator, even if it doesnt get topped up in a long time, no temp issues at all, sits fine even when hooning Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
johngreen537 Posted January 28, 2012 Share Posted January 28, 2012 Yes.....Could be a slightly leak rad mate. Hard to spot too. Get some RadWeld type stuff in there to seal off any tiny cracks!Hate the stuff, but if you are changing the rad at a later date, it's worth a try!Head gasket I say.I had a different problem but I'm sure it will be the head gasket if you have tried everything else.Here is the link to my reply on a different thread.viewtopic.php?f=52&t=8594&hilit=overheatingProject Stiff test been done mate. Very doubtful the gasket is gone. No water in oil, and no gasses in coolant. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
