Can a radiator leak without any visible coolant on the ground?
Yes, some radiator leaks are small enough that coolant evaporates as it escapes, especially if it’s dripping onto hot engine components. Leaks can also occur internally or in hidden areas like heater hoses or behind engine covers. If your coolant level keeps dropping but there are no obvious puddles, it’s worth having a pressure test performed. This can help detect slow leaks or weaknesses before they lead to overheating or engine damage.
What is electrolysis, and how does it affect radiators?
Electrolysis is a chemical reaction caused by stray electrical currents flowing through the cooling system, often due to poor engine grounding. It can corrode radiator components, leading to pinhole leaks in aluminium cores. Signs include unexplained coolant loss or frequent radiator failures. Preventing electrolysis involves proper grounding, regular coolant changes, and sometimes installing sacrificial anodes. It’s a lesser-known but serious issue that can significantly shorten radiator life if ignored.
Do I need to bleed air from the radiator after topping up coolant?
Yes, air can become trapped in the cooling system after adding or replacing coolant. Air pockets prevent proper circulation, causing overheating or inconsistent temperature readings. Bleeding the system involves opening a bleed valve, loosening the radiator cap, or using a funnel system to allow trapped air to escape as the engine warms up. Some vehicles have specific bleed points, so following the correct procedure—or having a professional do it—is important.
