My wifes 2005 Camry, with 14,000 miles, keeps loosing coolant. When the car was new the overflow tank was at the full mark. Over time it kept getting lower and I marked the tank and recorded the date and miles. At about 7,900 miles (April '06) it was midway between full and low. Took the car to the dealer with the info as to date and miles and showed them the markings on the tank. They did a pressure test and stated they could not find any leaks and refilled the tank. Now at 14,000 miles it is about one quarter down from the full mark. I believe my next step is an oil analysis. I have the Blackstone kit and hopefully this will show if any coolant is in the oil.
I have a 2007 Camry I4 and when new the coolant was at the full mark and now at 3,600 miles it is about 1/8 inch below the full mark. Is this mormal?
Has anyone with a newer Camry I4 noticed any coolant level reduction in their cars? Is this normal that the coolant level drops after a period of time/miles and has to be refilled? I was under the impression the coolant systems are somewhat sealed and the only way coolant would be lost is either a leak in the system or a head gasket issue.
Thanks.
