The reasons for coolant loss are: 1. Leakage in the engine cooling system; 2. Thermal expansion and contraction; 3. Air retention in certain areas of the cooling system, which is expelled after some circulation, leading to a drop in coolant level. When the water temperature is too high, driving malfunctions may occur, necessitating inspection and maintenance. Coolant, fully known as antifreeze coolant, is a coolant with antifreeze properties. Antifreeze prevents the coolant from freezing and cracking the radiator or damaging the engine cylinder block during cold-season parking. Antifreeze is not just for winter use; it should be used year-round. In regular vehicle maintenance, the engine antifreeze should be replaced every year of driving.
