dnac 0 Posted December 10, 2006 Hi, A light has started flashing on my corrado dash, i think its the water level indicator. I guess it must be loosing water somewhere, but cannot see it, and cannot see water in the oil or the other way around. Is the coolant system pressurised when running? And is this a common fault. Anyone got any ideas? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
dr_mat 0 Posted December 10, 2006 The light works by detecting a low water level in the expansion tank. If you don't have enough water, the light comes on. Put some more in .. Sure, you might well be losing it, but it could be coming from anywhere.. You'll just have to go take a look at all the hoses and everything when the system is up to pressure and hope you can see steam/water coming out somewhere ..

VR6 0 Posted December 10, 2006 Take care when removing the expansion cap if the car has been running .... And never run with scissors. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Goldie 2 Posted December 10, 2006 Ive had this happen to me. I filled the car back up while it was running (had just started it so wasnt red hot). Be aware that the light will not go out then, you need to restart the car to clear the warning. Dont just keep pouring water in expecting the light to stop flashing!!
