Title: Coolant Levels
Post by: Rikk on May 13, 2006, 05:41:39 PM

Sorry for the dumb Q but I can't find my manual or haynes, do you check the coolant fluid levels when hot or cold?

Cheers

Cold.  You'll find a hot and cold marker, but cold offers the most accurate comaprison.  Try to have your Jeep parked in the same spot when you check it each week too, that way any difference will be more obvious.

Just had the AC condenser replaced under warranty, levels looked ok hot but went out a while ago and it's VERY low almost empty, just topped up a little to see if it stays as it is. If not I need to get him back.

Cheers.
