Open your radiator cap. Coolant should be all the way up to the base of the filler neck.
If it's not, your radiator is low, and you would never be able to tell this going just off your expansion tank alone.
I am currently investigating why I have an air bubble that was not "burped" out of my...
Hi everyone,
Has anyone experienced a radiator leak on a 2012 Mazda CX-9, specifically from the top connector area? It looks like that’s where mine is leaking.
I’m trying to understand the best solution. I came across JB Weld radiator repair (high-temperature epoxy) and was wondering if...
What’s the expectation for how much coolant drains from radiator. I drained mine and only got 1/2 gallon. Everything to read/watched said to expect a gallon. Refilled with a gallon of fluid.
Would the expansion tank still have fluid in it if the radiator was that low. It was right on...
Newly registered here but have been a lurker for a number of years off and on soaking up some of the great knowledge here for minor maintenance/repair to my CX-9. Ran into an issue that I need some specific advise on and I'm hoping you guys can help me out.
So, my 2007 CX-9 had a small coolant...
Hey Gang,
Luckily, for the past year or so I haven't had many issues with my 02 protege5 and it's now approaching 100,000 miles.
Recently, I noticed there was this constant rapid ticking noise coming from the engine. It almost sounded like a lawnmower noise and it would occur at low rpms and...
I bought a 2003 MSP and they had installed a much too small radiator and fan in it. I replaced the radiator with a Nissen radiator that fits perfectly, but I can't figure out what fan assembly fits. I bought the Mishimoto...
After noticing a small crack by the top hose fitting I will be buying a new radiator. I can get an ebay radiator for about 50$ but would rather get something that will be better made. So I have a few questions.
What is the brand of radiator that is stock on the Protege (non MazdaSpeed model)...
Good day everyone. I have a P5 with an overheating issue. The coolant boils over in the overflow tank when I put a load or go up steeper areas. When just idling I notice bubbles slowly creeping up. Someone had suggested to purge the system using the heater which I did and it still has been going...
I need a radiator for my MSP if you have one pm me. Im in Dallas Tx if anyone local has one otherwise send me a pm with price and i will get back to you.
I figured Ill post it here if anyone is looking to replace theirs. I was looking for some parts for my 5 and seen this great deal so I'm sharing it with you guys! This is not spam just trying to help people that may be looking for one. $52 is a good price I think...
Im curious if the overflow tank is part of the coolant capacity listed in the owners manual for my car (Protg 5 with heater). For my car it shows approximate 7.9 quarts of coolant capacity. And the problem I have is this. When I do a coolant flush and on cooled off engine I open the drain on the...
I own a 2003 MazdaSpeed Protege all stock with no mods. I bought it brand new in 2003 and I love my car I will never drive anything other then Mazda. Last week my radiator started leaking really bad and now needs to be replaced. I have been looking all over the internet and different part stores...
I just (almost) finished swapping out my engines on my MP3. There is one nozzle left and it is right underneath the radiator cap. I don't know which hose or where the hose goes considering I have 5 hoses leftover. Please help, thanks
I'm looking into getting a front mount intercooler with the kit made for my msp, but if not i'll be needing a stock radiator. It started to leak, and i'll be needing one asap. PM me or just reply here if you got that. I'd greatly appreciate it!
Hey guys,
My car overheated last week and I replaced the thermostat. No damage to the headgasket whatsoever. My car runs at normal temperature but I now have a small coolant leak somewhere that could be on the radiator. I don't think it's the hose because the bottom part of my radiator has...

Does ANYONE know where to find radiator hoses for the 04 Mazda 3S. I want to put either red or chrome in but I can't seem to find any. Even sleeves to put over would be great. Thank you!
Hey guys I know this might be a super-noob question but I was wondering how to drain the coolant out or flush the coolant out of the radiator? I've seen a few videos on YouTube showing just a drain bolt on the bottom of the radiator where you can drain it and fill it back up. I would just like...
