Where is the water tank of the new Lavida located?
2 Answers
The water tank of the new Lavida is located directly in front of the engine, in front of the electric fan, next to the bumper. The car water tank, also known as the radiator, is a key component in the vehicle's cooling system. Its function is to dissipate heat. The coolant absorbs heat in the water jacket, flows to the radiator to release the heat, and then returns to the water jacket to circulate, achieving temperature regulation. The body dimensions of the new Lavida are 4670 mm in length, 1806 mm in width, and 1474 mm in height, with a wheelbase of 2688 mm. The new Lavida features front-wheel drive, with a MacPherson strut front suspension and a torsion beam rear suspension, and its body structure is of the monocoque type.
I've always found it practical to know the location of the radiator. In the new Lavida, the radiator is hidden at the front of the engine bay, right next to the front grille. When you pop the hood, you can immediately spot the metal radiator section, alongside a small coolant reservoir with markings. Last year, I noticed the coolant level had dropped overnight, nearly causing engine overheating, so checking it regularly has become a habit for me. Make sure the coolant level stays between the min and max lines to avoid radiator blockages or leaks that could lead to malfunctions. It's the same with new cars—the structure is similar, and simply feeling the temperature of the hoses after parking can help diagnose potential issues.
