    Re: Another G6 with coolant loss...head gasket?

    Last night after work I checked my coolant level and the resevoir was nearly empty. It took a half gallon of antifreeze to fill up. I'm bringing the car to the service center today for them to see where the problem is and if it is the headgasket or not. The car wont be worked on until monday though.


    On a side note. I never imagined our cars would hold over a gallon of windshield washer fluid. Its the first time i actually filled it up and i was shocked. (it always gets filled up when i get an oil change)

      Well the dealership just called and said it was my surge tank and radiator cap not holding pressure. It's a $170 fix not covered under warranty. No big deal. Let's see if this fixes the issue. Btw what the hell is a surge tank (edit: nvmd looked it up... It's the resevoir)

        Update:

        Well I checked the coolant level before I got my oil changed and guess what...It was low again. SOOOO i guess I will be taking it back for another look.
