Done a search on the many overheating threads but im a little confused?
Last night was driving to football training, stopped at the garage on route and about 1/2 mile down the road beeping temperature gauge and flashing light pulled over and opened the bonnet letting it cool down.. and it went back down to 90 but again when up to 120. decided to head home (2 miles) driving very slowly and then letting it cool down for 10 mins just to get home.
I know that 2 days ago i topped the coolant up to just below the Max line, so i know there was enough in there.
now the cars sat over night i have just got home from work and had a look because it was too dark last night and the level in the expansion bottle is about 15/20 mm below the Min line?
any ideas on what could be the problem?
