Hi,

My coolant tank is totally empty and dry. I think I have coolant left in my radiator and I have never seen my engine getting too hot.

Do you think its possible for coolant tank to be dry and flushing and refiling the coolant should be all I need to do? Or it can happen only when I have a leak somewhere. I have never noticed anything dripping from my car as such.

Any advice in this regard will be highly appreciated.

Thanks

Check the radiator coolant level if low fill it and also the resevoir tank to it markings and go from there-
