Do you know what is causing water sloshing noises
in the firewall area of our kia. It can't be normal &
it's not the windshield washer tank.

Thanks

Hello
Thanks for the donation.

Your coolant resevior is probably what you are hearing.
Possible heater core? Heater core usually is located inside of dash near the firewall on passenger side of vehicle. It shouldn't be holding the coolant though, should be flowing thu freely..


Hope this helps..
Thanks for using 2carpros.com!
