Hey guys, recently did a radiator flush. put the new stuff in and yes its bleeded and all. But when ever i check under the radiator cap the coolant is always VERY low in there yet the reservoir is full, Its like the radiator is putting it in the reservoir but not taking it back out, checked the cap it looks functional. But for it to happen even when the car is off and cold is strange. no leaks under the car and no steam in the exhaust or fluid in the oil. WHERE IS IT GOING! Car isnt over heating its staying between the 1/4 and the half markings
If it wasnt opening then the car would be getting hot wouldnt it? ALso when i bleed the system from the valve on top it worked :S
Try another radiator cap. If the rubber has gone a bit hard air will get sucked into the radiator instead of sucking coolant out of the overflow bottle when the engine cools down.
Could be intake manifold gaskets leaking. Wouldn't be the first VT owner losing coolant through there
