2019 Ford Transit Connect Coolant in Fort Worth, TX

These symptoms can point to depleted coolant or a leak, and a top-off alone may not identify the cause. The cooling system should be checked cold because it is under pressure and hot after running.

• Temperature gauge running higher than usual
• Sweet smell or puddle beneath the front of the vehicle
• Rusty, cloudy, or low coolant in the reservoir

The refill uses the type and concentration specified by the manufacturer for this vehicle. Pressure testing helps distinguish routine coolant maintenance from a leak that requires repair.

• Drain and refill with manufacturer-specified coolant
• Cooling-system pressure test for leaks
• Inspection of hoses, cap, radiator, and water pump area

The manufacturer publishes a cooling-system inspection schedule and a separate flush or replacement schedule for this vehicle. A technician can also evaluate the coolant and pressure-test the system when symptoms appear or during other maintenance.

• Follow the manufacturer’s maintenance schedule
• Test coolant condition during a service visit
• Investigate symptoms instead of relying on appearance

Coolants are not interchangeable, so selecting fluid by color alone is not reliable. David McDavid Ford can use the manufacturer-specified coolant and check the system during the service.

• Use the manufacturer-specified coolant type
• Do not treat color as a reliable identification method
• Have compatibility checked before adding fluid

A falling level indicates a leak rather than normal consumption and calls for an inspection. Do not open the cooling system while it is hot; checking it is done cold because the system is pressurized after running.

• Level restoration is not the same as coolant service
• A repeatedly low level warrants leak testing
• Check the system only when cold
