Engine Cooling problem
2003 Honda Civic 4 cyl Two Wheel Drive Automatic 95.000 miles

Hi I have been having this problem for about a year now. I have to feed coolant in the Radiator every 3 to 4 days so the car doesn't overheat. I had the thermostat replaced but still have the problem. The reservoir tank stays full and doesn't seem to feed the Radiator. My mechanic said it could be the head gasket or some internal leak. I got the Radiator checked for leak and nothing was found. Please help ..

You need to have a coolant system pressure test done to help locate the source of the leak. Also have the rad cap tested
