Hey guys
I was driving home from work the safternoon and the dash started flashing saying engine over heating and the gage was in the red, had only been driving ten minutes =S So i pulled over let it cool down, checked the fluid level and there was literally almost nothing in there (i only just dropped and refilled the fluid 3 days ago) i filled it back up and it took just over 3 litres.. the temp stayed low the rest of the trip home but it's now saying 'check powertrain' I'm suspecting its the water pump leaking/shot? i'm pretty cluey with cars but im not 100% sure as im only a panel beater.
so i'm just wondering has anyone else had this problem and what was wrong?!?
Cheers lewis.
