Coolant Problem 2000 v40

Post by Buck123 »

I have a 2000 v40. I notice that the coolant was low and put in coolant/water mixture. Engine cooled down for a bit. Shortly after I still noticed that the thermostat was in the red, so I took it to the shop and they told me there was no problem or leak. But I have just noticed that there seems to be no coolant in the car and the thermo is at the red again!!! Then it cools for a bit but back to the red.

Okay, so it seems like there is an internal leak - but what does that mean for me as for fixing the problem and costs? Has anyone had this problem?

Thanks!!

Buck

I've been adding coolant to my 70 every few months for 3 years now and I know it will never add up to the cost of a proper repair. howstu
