Why is the antifreeze being consumed quickly?
1 Answers
Reasons for rapid antifreeze consumption: Possible antifreeze leakage; Poor circulation leading to fast consumption; Coolant entering the cylinders and being burned or leaking into the oil pan. Below is relevant information about antifreeze: 1. Definition: Antifreeze prevents coolant from freezing during cold winter parking, which could crack the radiator or damage the engine cylinder block. 2. Function: Provides anti-corrosion protection for cooling system components. Prevents scale formation to avoid reducing the radiator's cooling efficiency. Ensures the engine operates within normal temperature ranges. It must possess characteristics of freeze protection, boil-over prevention, corrosion resistance, scale prevention, and foam-free operation, unaffected by seasons or regions.
