Coolant Level
« on: 01 February 2010, 21:08:54 »

I have the warning light for the coolant level on. When I checked the level it was ok. Any ideas as what the problem could be. Thanks

The level sensor, which is part of te header tank, is goosed/sticking. The best fix is a new header tank - about £35  :y  :y

Unplug and bridge as a check, to ensure it is the sensor goosed (and a permanent bodge if you wish ::)), then replace tank :y :y
