Bad Coolant Leak? Here's What to Watch Out For in Your Vehicle

Coolant Leaks: A Common but Serious Problem

A bad coolant leak can cause major engine damage if left untreated. This customer’s vehicle came in with coolant pouring out — a clear sign of a serious fault. If you spot coloured fluid under your car or notice the temperature gauge rising, don’t ignore it.

We see coolant leaks regularly at 1Stop Motor Shop Newtownabbey, often due to:

• Damaged radiator hoses

• Failing water pumps

• Cracked radiator tanks

• Loose hose clamps

• Leaking expansion tanks

How to Spot a Coolant Leak Before It Gets Worse

Watch out for:

• Puddles under your car (green, pink or orange fluid)

• Sweet smell under the bonnet

• Overheating or fluctuating temperature gauge

• Low coolant light on your dashboard

• Steam from the engine bay
