coolant bottle still hot after an hour is this normal.
« on: 14 July 2012, 12:43:05 »
HI omega lovers, my 3.0 mv6 estate gets hot and white ish clear smoke comes out the exhaust when stationary. but a couple of weeks ago the coolant light came up on the check computer on the dash, so i topped it up but now and again the coolant check comes on the off!!! so i check the coolant level and its perfect. after an hour i feel the coolant bottle and its still pretty hot. could i have a blocked hose or something else please help. thanks

I suspect you have a shitty sensor in the bottle causing the coolant warning on the MID ;)
