Uh Oh,

The dreaded green fluid appeared under my RT. It's been sitting in the garage and hasn't been on the road for at least two weeks. Looked it over and the only thing I saw was some moisture around the top of the radiator hose at the bottom of the coolant reservoir. No drips on the frame and no trail on the hose. Took it out for a run, brought it back in and will check it tomorrow.

The reservoirs have earned a reputation for cracking. :shocked:
Please let us know what further examinations uncover; good luck! :thumbup:

You need a little bottle of that fluid they put in to check for leaks. You add to the coolant and when it leaks you can trace it w/ a special light or special glasses. :shocked:

Leak

If it is the reservoir , it will start small then a pin hole leak under pressure. Only option is to replace the tank. Happened to us on vacation no dealer had one in stock. Had to pack up and go home in the toyhauler

Good luck.

Hope it all works well for you. At least you got the warning in the garage.

I have the same issue with my 2013 RT-S. I plan on dealing with it when it's warmer out hope it's something simple.

it sometimes happens that a few drops of coolant come out through the overflow pipe.
The bad thing is that it blows from the engine, the result that it gives a distorted picture.
the overflow pipe is too short.
had also, .... overflow pipe longer and few drops do not notice it that way.
Sure if the screw cap that does not seal enough ..... one comes soon after normal check of coolant
