Coolant leakage can be caused by various reasons, and repairs should be carried out based on the specific situation: 1. If the car has been used for a long time, rubber pipes and sealing rings may age, leading to coolant leakage. In this case, it is necessary to inspect and replace the damaged components and replenish the coolant in time. 2. Radiator leakage is also a common cause of coolant leakage. Intense vibrations during driving or collisions may cause cracks at the radiator's welding points or looseness at the connections. In such cases, the leakage point should be inspected and repaired, or the radiator may need to be replaced if necessary. Here is some relevant information: 1. Regularly check the coolant level. If the coolant level is found to be below the minimum mark, it should be replenished promptly. If coolant leakage is detected, the best approach is to take the car to a professional repair shop for targeted repairs based on the specific cause of the leakage. 2. Coolant usually has a color and feels slippery to the touch. The color is mainly to distinguish it from other liquids and to make it easier to determine if there is a leakage.
