Had a new radiator fitted last week as mine had a crack in it. Had new coolant at the same time but must still have a leak somewhere (or the garage didnt put enough coolant back in) as im just setting off on a little journey but when checking fluid levels the coolant is below the min mark! Is it ok to just add a bit of water to it for the time being? Just havnt really got time to call anywhere to get some, plus i know your not meant to mix coolants. Quick response appreciated guys :)

Make sure you put some Anti freeze in though too but water is ok until you can :)

I'm guessing the garage didn't allow for the coolant to run around all the pipes and fill the rad. So might need bleeding too I would maybe ring them and ask just so they know about it. they might have just over looked it if they was busy.
