2001 Toyota Corolla is sucking down Coolant

Hey everyone,

My 2001 Rolla is going thru massive amounts of Coolant. If I fill it up on monday I need to add more by friday. I don't see any fluid on the ground. Any ideas???

Thanks!,

YOu need to have it pressure tested. It could be a few things. You have a crack in a water jacket, and your leaking coolant into the block, which is really bad. Second is, it could be stuck in a bubble in a hose. It could also be evaporating out of a bad radiator cap or resevoir valve.

YOu have any more details?

Well my check engine light came on and i had Auto Zone run it and it came back w/ some emmision recycling problems. I don't think that's related.

When I got the car last week I parked it in the driveway and smelled coolant burning, when I opened the hood I noticed that the coolant was bone dry. I filled it once and it's almost gone.

Thanks for your reply, that's all I know

I would honestly go with it leaking into the block. if you change your oil, you will see water in it. thats most likely.

have your car been overheat before? check your oil, if the color like chocolate thick that means you have water in the block which is not a good sign. Continue to drive the car will be ruin the bottom part of the engine if there are water in the block

I thought for sure i said that
