How to Deal with Excessive Coolant Consumption in New Cars?
1 Answers
First, check whether there is any leakage in the radiator. If there is a leakage point, repair it or replace it if necessary. Secondly, check whether the overflow tank, the joint surface of the water pump, and the pipe fittings of the cooling system are loose, and tighten the loose parts. Check the sealing condition of the cylinder gasket to eliminate the possibility of coolant entering the cylinder and being burned. The main reasons for rapid coolant consumption in cars are: 1. Unreasonable design of the cooling system. 2. Leakage. 3. Poor circulation leading to rapid consumption. 4. Coolant entering the cylinder and being burned. Below is some relevant information: 1. Coolant, also known as antifreeze, is a liquid composed of antifreeze additives, additives to prevent metal corrosion, and water. It has properties such as antifreeze, anti-corrosion, heat conduction, and non-deterioration. Nowadays, antifreeze mainly composed of ethylene glycol, with added anti-corrosion additives and water, is commonly used. 2. The engine cooling system of internal combustion vehicles is a liquid-cooled closed-loop system composed of cylinders, jackets, and radiators. The working condition of the cooling system directly affects the normal operation of the vehicle and its service life.
