Reasons for coolant decrease: Under continuous high-temperature conditions of the engine, there will always be some coolant loss, but the amount is minimal. Damage to the radiator head gasket or loosening of the overflow tank, water pump joint surfaces, and pipe connections in the cooling system can all lead to coolant leakage. It is necessary to promptly visit the nearest auto repair shop for maintenance, otherwise, the radiator will quickly run low on coolant. If there is a shortage of coolant, the first consequence is reduced cooling efficiency, which can easily lead to "boiling over" due to excessive temperatures during high-speed operation. Secondly, the viscosity of the engine oil will also decrease, leading to wear and tear on engine components over time. Therefore, if coolant leakage or shortage is detected, immediate action must be taken to address the issue.
