pjrzn Posted August 3, 2013 Share Posted August 3, 2013 Guys just wondering i think im loosing coolant I haven't noticed any smoke however im not quite sure when vtec kicks in. No sign of oil mixing with water vice versa... Going to try it for a long drive today and see what happens...Any ideas why? Last time i had a similar symptoms on my rover my head gasket is blown so im kinda worried... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
simpo Posted August 3, 2013 Share Posted August 3, 2013 Never used any coolent when I had it! I would start by looking at hoses and rad.( rovers prone for head gaskets) or maybe just due to the really hot weather maybe a full coolent change might help 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NIKH25 Posted August 3, 2013 Share Posted August 3, 2013 Is it getting hot? Fan kicking in? Maybe try bleeding it first. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pjrzn Posted August 5, 2013 Author Share Posted August 5, 2013 I haven't got the chance yet - I didn't lose any when I went to bournemouth there and back - the bay can get really hot though for some reason - Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paulvti Posted August 8, 2013 Share Posted August 8, 2013 Do the heaters still blow hot? Check for leaks if no leaks it's more than likely the head gasket is going..... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
