Why Does a Car Leak Antifreeze?
1 Answers
Common reasons for a car leaking antifreeze are as follows: 1. Radiator damage, poor sealing of the upper and lower water chambers. 2. Loose and poorly sealed connections at the overflow tank, water pump joint surface, and cooling system pipelines. 3. Cylinder gasket damage, excessive flatness deviation or warping of the cylinder head and block joint surface, and loose cylinder head bolts, allowing high-temperature and high-pressure gases from the cylinder to enter the cooling system, leading to rapid coolant consumption. Here is some related information: For maintenance, the coolant should be replaced every one to two years of driving. During routine maintenance, regularly check the antifreeze level and freezing point. If abnormalities are found, promptly replenish or replace it, and identify the cause of the leak for repair.
