What does 'low coolant' mean in a Land Rover?
1 Answers
Land Rover's 'low coolant' indicates that the coolant level is low. In vehicles, 'coolant' refers to the cooling fluid, which is marked on the coolant reservoir. Additionally, a warning light may appear on the dashboard. 'Low coolant' means the coolant level is too low and needs to be refilled. Typically, coolant circulates through the engine water jacket, cooling system, and air conditioning heating system without significant reduction. When the 'low coolant' light comes on, it is likely that there is a leak in the system. The engine coolant provides the following protective functions: It protects the components of the cooling system from corrosion. Prevents scale buildup, avoiding reduced heat dissipation in the radiator. Ensures the engine operates within the normal temperature range. Engine coolant must have the characteristics of antifreeze, anti-boiling, anti-corrosion, anti-scaling, and no foam, and should not be affected by seasons or regions. Among these, freezing point and boiling point are the basic indicators of coolant.
