[QUOTE="jarance, post: 578461, member: 21"] 1. If there is a leak, just top up with distilled water until all leak is resolved. You are wasting coolant if there is still a leak in the cooling system. 2. No, the temperature will NOT rise if there low level of coolant. The warning sign tell you that there is a low level of coolant. Overheating will however occurred when there is rapid lost of ALL coolant like a burst water hose pipe or water pump failure. Note: when encountered overheating, park at the side of the road and let the engine cool down for at least ONE hour before adding cold water. This is to prevent further damage to your engine.
