09 1500 Hemi 5.7 - Coolant disappearing (loss)

[Ram316]

I am losing coolant, but not sure where. The overflow bottle always ends up being empty. The radiator seems to always have some coolant in it. I dont see anything leaking or see smoke from it burning. Probably need to get it pressure tested and start from there?

Check your oil and make sure it's not milky looking. That will help determine if you have a head gasket leak. Then look at all the hoses. And yes I would have the radiator pressure checked to make sure the radiator doesn't have a leak. Check the over flow tube coming out of the firewall to see if it has evidence of a heater core leaking. Just some idea's to help you out

I had a car where the tube from the radiator had a crack in it. coolant would come into the radiator from the tank, but when it left the radiator to go to the tank it would run down the side of the radiator. I had to keep refilling the tank.
