"Check Coolant"message..each morning.

[peakpro]

I have had my X5 for about 10 days. The past two mornings I have been getting a check coolant level warning each morning when I start the car.

I have checked the levels and they seem fine.

I only get the warning in the morning and then I don't get the warning anytime I start the car the rest of the day.


It has been cooler the past two monrings..if that is of any significance.

any ideas..

thanks

Here's a link, from this board, on coolant sensor failure:

And, I rec'd dragging your X back to Stlr, as I recall yours is
"CPO"; no idea if they cover that item these days, under CPO.

The ambient temp should have no effect...something is amiss with the sensor or some connected glitch.
My 5 yr old X has never shown coolant low, though it does consume some coolant with regularity.

thanks for the link...and info...



its a 2005 so a new sensor would be covered under the orginal warranty....
