Explicit resolution reports before identified causes, performed actions and suggestions. Within each level, matching component labels precede direct query mentions and inherited thread context; successful versus unsuccessful discussion counts, owner confirmations and independent discussion support determine order. This is not a probability of success.

0 original-poster resolution reports. Counts can overlap; they are not unique people or a success rate.

0 discussions have direct query context; 0 report a fix in that context. Other evidence may inherit the discussion’s subject.

Coverage and how to read this overview

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

POST 1Original post

This morning we had 17* in Charlotte and right after cranking the car the red light on the temp gage blinked for about 5 minutes and after that it went away. All normal. I guess the cold 17* reduce the amount of coolant enough to register "low coolant level". What do you think?

POST 2Original post

Might be worth checking the level when your car cools off. It's pretty low if a temp drop made the low-coolant warning light up.

POST 3Original post

Two possibilities. Your coolant is low as BillC suggested or your gauge is faulty. I'd discount the temp theory.

POST 4Original post

Amazing. I checked the coolant level and it was a tad low... put some in (may be 4oz) and everything went away. I believe it was boderline and with the temp drop it was enough to indicate the fault. Good deal. Thanks
