How to check the coolant level on 12 Chevy Equinox
Hi, I’m Mike from 1A Auto. We’ve been selling auto parts for over 30 years!
We're going to start by popping the hood. The handle for that is down here on this left-hand kick panel. Once you pull on the hood lever and release the hood, use the safety lock, which is right there, and lift up.
Next we're going to check the coolant level. This has a clear reservoir. You can see the low and the high line. It should read low on cold, cold, where it says cold fill level. At this point, this needs to add some. The vehicle has been shut off for several hours, so I can remove the cap.
If it has been running for longer than a half hour, I do not recommend taking the cap off until it's cooled completely. I would pour the coolant in there. In this case, it takes universal long life, and fill it right to the line. Then reassemble my cap.
