Can You Directly Add More Coolant If the Car's Coolant Level Is Low?
1 Answers
You can directly add more coolant if the car's coolant level is low. The reasons for low coolant levels are as follows: Normal consumption: A reduction in coolant is normal, just like other automotive fluids such as engine oil and windshield washer fluid, which also decrease during vehicle use. The main reason for coolant reduction is natural evaporation. Coolant serves to cool the car's engine, which often operates at high temperatures. Since the coolant is in contact with the engine, its consumption is normal. Coolant leakage: Most cars consume about 10%-25% of their coolant per year. However, if the coolant level drops significantly or you need to add coolant every 300-500 kilometers, this is abnormal and may be due to a leak, requiring inspection and repair.
