Problem: Honda vehicles often experience radiator leaks due to age and lack of factory-recommended cooling system maintenance. Coolant leaks usually start small, with the engine running slightly warmer than normal, and can progress to coolant puddling under the vehicle, engine overheating, unexplained coolant loss, limp‑mode power loss, cylinder head gasket failure, and cylinder head damage. Honda engine coolant is colored blue or green, has a sweet smell and taste, and is highly toxic to animals and humans, especially children, so coolant leaks are both an engine‑damage and a safety risk. Radiator coolant leaks are common on Honda Civic models.
Solution: Radiator replacement; coolant flush and replacement.
