Coolant Reservoir: Description and Operation

Coolant Header and Recovery Tanks
A coolant recovery system is used, which comprises a header tank and a recovery tank. The recovery tank is located at the rear of the right hand front wheel arch liner.
The header tank provides the cooling system filling point and carries the coolant level sensor. The pressure cap allows controlled release of coolant to the recovery tank during normal operation.
The recovery tank accommodates the expansion of the system coolant during normal operation.
On engine cool-down, the coolant contracts and is returned to the main system.
