hey guys i just wanted to know if any of you get a light on your dash whenever you haul *** or step on it??? its the light that indicates low coolant it looks like a picture of the radiator.mazda says thats its normal cuz when you get on it the engine sucks in alot coolant..it goes off like in two minutes also.oh ya and my car is 04 manual. any help will be greatly appreciated.

 

Whoever told you that needs to lay off of the crackpipe. That is definately not normal.

 

New dealer time!

 

how many miles.

Add a little coolant or water to reservoir, it will go out soon after.

 

Definitely add a little coolant. Also, just like low coolant, low brake fluid will also light up on the dash during hard starts and stops.

 

Not normal. That's a low coolant light. Add coolant.

Hey guys its me again i took your advice and took my car to another dealer and they could not get the light to come on.so i got in and went on a testdrive with the tech and it came on so he concluded that the sensor on the reservior was faulty. when he was trying to install the new reservior he somehow broke a nipple on the radiator so they had to change the radiator also. it was warranty so i didnt care i was actually happy cuz i got a coolant flush. oh ya and the light has not come back on so it was the sensor that was causing the light to come on..

 

I have the same problem... it happens usually when its hot outside... never looked into it
