Couple of questions for 06 owners.....

Hey there! Still trying to nail down my intermittant little drizzle of coolant out the TOP of the overflow...

#1 What level is your coolant measuring in the overflow bottle? Is it on the " Full " line ?? or on the little " Blue " line a little ways down from that? Or is it somewhere in between?

#2 Where does your temp guage usually read when warmed up? The "2" is usually just to the left of center, the first "0" is exactly center, and the second "0" is slightly to the right of center. Mine will go to the 2nd "0" on inisitial warm up, then drop down to just to the left of center. If it's hot out with AC it will sometimes stay right in the middle. It does move up to a little over center and drop back down as well. When I am pulling heavy uphill it will go slightly past center to the right and stay there until the road flattens out and then back down it goes..

Just curious and thanks for your time!! Dealer took out enough coolant on Tuesday to make the coolant overflow bottle be on the HALF way point between ADD and FULL. Still getting the intermittant drizzle out the top so was just curious!

Thanks!
