Put on some miles last night and the coolant code started to flash. Shut it done to look in the reservoir and when I took off the cap, saw some bubbles and then the coolant that was left in the reservoir slowly sucked down. There was about 2 to 3 inches in there when I first took the cap off, and then it sucked down to nothing.
Prior to this when I was filling up with gas, and topping off the oil, I noticed a little vapor coming off near the top of a power valve and I thought I had a leaking gasket, but now thinking back it could have been a leaking head gasket? Because I noticed a drop of antifreeze on top of the coolant line going to the water pump. On TOP of the hose, laying on the clamp, and not underneath the hose.
I imagine I should check the cylinder head torque for starters. I looked at the part exploded view and it shows a gasket and something else circular between the head and the jug. Replace both?
thanks.
