Will the Geely Emgrand GL give a warning if the coolant is low?
2 Answers
Geely Emgrand GL will not give a warning if the coolant is low, so it is necessary to check the coolant level regularly. Low coolant levels can easily cause the engine to overheat, leading to engine damage. The normal operating temperature of an engine is between 90°C and 120°C. Insufficient coolant, especially in summer, can easily cause risks such as engine overheating. How to determine if the coolant is low: Observe the coolant warning light on the dashboard. If it lights up, it is likely due to low coolant, though it could also be caused by excessively high cylinder temperatures. Check the coolant reservoir. If the level is below the minimum mark (MIN), do not continue driving and add coolant promptly. Check the water level markings on the coolant tank. The normal coolant level should be between the maximum and minimum marks. If the coolant is below the minimum mark, it indicates a shortage of coolant. Function of coolant: Coolant is a special additive-containing liquid used primarily in liquid-cooled engine cooling systems. It has excellent properties such as preventing freezing in winter, boiling in summer, and protecting against scale and corrosion year-round.
My Geely Emgrand GL has been running for three years, and it definitely alerts you when the coolant is low. That little warning light on the dashboard comes on, similar to the overheating icon. Once I didn’t notice the low level, and as soon as the light came on, I pulled over to check. I found the coolant in the expansion tank had dropped below the minimum line. If ignored, the engine could overheat, leading to costly repairs and wasted time. I’ve also learned to check it myself when the engine is cold—just pop the hood and look at the level in the transparent reservoir. I recommend owners check it monthly. Topping up coolant is easy; just buy a bottle of the same type at the supermarket. Don’t wait until it’s a big problem and end up spending unnecessary money at the repair shop.
