Hi all,

I know this has probably been asked but all the coolant threads seem concerned with fully replacing the coolant in the system.

Where do I check the coolant level on a regular basis just to keep it topped up?

Cheers!

The main filler neck which it by the alternator and air pump.

What sort of level should it be in there? I know the overflow has L and F on the dipstick but not sure in there?

Yeah I just fill it to the top. The sensor that goes off it your low on coolant is only a coupld of inches from the top anyway

normal level is about inch down from top..if u fill to brim and keep topping up then when hot will expand and eventually throw it out

Cool, thanks peeps. I\'ll top it up before I go out tomorrow as I think it\'s a bit low.
