  • coolant dipstick leaking

    has this happened to anyone?

    it would appear that the cap for my coolant dipstick has cracked in the center and spews coolant sometimes.

    is there supposed to be a small hole and its just cracked over time?

    or do i need a new cap/dipstick.

    Mine is a 2002 and the dipstick is vented so that the coolant can escape if the resovoir gets too full. Just how much coolant is in there? Sounds like you just have too much coolant in the tank. Also check the radiator to make sure it's full. If the radiator is full, then drain some coolant from the tank.

      sounds good. its probably just too full. i recently flushed my coolant and have been checking the radiator every few days. so when i top it up its probably all just going to the overflow bottle.
