Hi All,

have a quick question.

if you go to see a used mustang 2015 ecoboost and you see the coolant level is lower than min a little bit -what dos this mostly mean?

is the car still good to deal with? is it normally for a turbo car? But this is 2015 car -don't really think there is any leaks

thanks.

I don't think that's an indication of anything bad other than coolant level maybe a little low.

You could go rogue :ninja: and pull the dipstick and inspect the oil to see if it looks normal (i.e. no water or milky) If the oil looks good, everything should be ok.

Just point it out to them and have them add more coolant.

it is strange that the coolant is below min. For used cars, you should get a mechanic to put the car on lift and check for leaks. Coolant can slowly leak into the engine but I don't know if a mechanic can easily determine that with a quick inspection. I assume the car is being sold with warranty. Is this dealership or private sale?
