I hate to break the news to you man but it sounds like your coolant seals are starting to fail.



If your getting a rough idle and white smoke at start up and have to keep adding coolant then most likely its the coolant seals..



I have some good info about this subject in detail on my website.

Under Tech info.

my damn add coolant buzzer wont go off!!!!!!!!!its full to the top.overflow has antifreeze.....can i take the cap off my ast and put coolant in there if i need to?????i cant stand that damn buzzer...if it is a coolant seal thank god for the warranty!!!help

 

Does anyone think that this could be a bad coolant level sensor?

 

is it safe to take the cap off my ast and put coolant there if need be?

 

YES. the ast should be full too. it will help the dispersion of the coolant if there are any shortages anywhere....

 

ok i filled the ast and left it uncapped then added coolant to the filler neck.(not the ast and coolant hit the ground from somewhere underneath the ast????wtf?

 

Check your hoses, especially the lower rad hose.

Also like i was saying the coolant level sensor.

 

check the small hose that comes off of the bottom of the AST. i had a problem once where mine was flappin around and the fan blades chewed it up....i would see coolant for about 3 or 4 minutes at a time, and then it would stop once the pressure evened out......so it won't be something that you see all the time if it is from that lower hose.....

Your overflow tank is cracked in the filler neck... I think. It happened to me.

Not expensive to replace.
