Hi
Well it started 3 days ago, my car heaters would only blow cold heat even though the temp gauge thinggy on the dash was at halfway (where it normally stays) then the next day, same thing.. would only blow cold air.
Then halfway through the day my temp gauge went nearly to the top and the red light came on.. this is the first time this has ever happened, so i stoped the engine and let it cool down then drove to my home (about 4 minutes away).
Checked the water/coolant levels and they were minimum, so i topped up. the problem went away, the heaters were blowing warm air again. so i thought yayyy this is sorted now. so i drove the next day about 40 miles and everything was nice, then as i was heading home the heaters were blowing cold again and the temp gauge was slowly rising above halfway.
So i got home and checked the water levels again, an once again they were on minimum.. so what could be wrong, why is my car going through water this fast? there is no visible leak so where could the water be going?
If anyone could help on this matter, it would be much appreciated. also what sort of costs am i looking at??
Thanks
Ryan
