Hi Scotty,
I have a 2010 Honda CRV that keeps overheating and losing coolant. I have taken it to different Mechanics over the course of 5 months and they say they fixed the problem, however it keeps persisting.
They have replaced the radiator, the fan, and the thermostat over the course of 5 months and it still keeps losing coolant and overheating after about three days.
I don't have any white smoke from the exhaust, dont see any bubbles forming at the radiator cap, and don't see any physical radiator pipe leaks in the engine bay causing any smoke.
What could be the problem? (I did notice that the previous owner had also replaced the radiator before)
It's either leaking coolant or burning coolant. Is the ground wet anywhere under the car? Look at the front of the engine near the water pump for signs of wetness. Is the radiator cap old and allowing the expanded coolant to come out the reservoir overflow tube? If none of these apply, I'd get a test kit and see if there's combustion gases in the coolant indicating a blown head gasket.
Thank you so much for the help!
