Title: Coolant level settling in expan tank
Post by: SP_3.2 on 08 February 2011, 15:15:15

When the coolant is filled  to the max in the expansion tank  when the car is cold, dose it have a settling point it gets to over the following days. As i guess the amount would rise and drop as the system is pressured and then cools.

Not sure if i,m making sence :-/ :-/.

Thanks
Steve.

if you've changed the water pump, or something then could take a few runs to settle.

Should settle once cold to the line marked "Kalt" (cold)
