3.6L V6 Engine Coolant Surge Tank
Check to see if coolant is visible in the
coolant surge tank. If the coolant
inside the coolant surge tank is
boiling, do not do anything else until
it cools down. See Engine Overheating
0 321.
The coolant surge tank is in the
engine compartment on the passenger
side of the vehicle. See Engine
Compartment Overview 0300.
How to Add Coolant to the
Coolant Surge Tank
If no problem is found, check to see if
coolant is visible in the coolant surge
tank. If coolant is visible but not at or above the indicated mark, add a 50/
50 mixture of clean, drinkable water
and DEX-COOL coolant. Be sure the
cooling system, including the coolant
surge tank pressure cap, is cool before
this is done. See
Engine Overheating
0 321.
{Warning
Spilling coolant on hot engine parts
can burn you. Coolant contains
ethylene glycol and it will burn if
the engine parts are hot enough.
{Warning
Steam and scalding liquids from a
hot cooling system are under
pressure. Turning the pressure cap,
even a little, can cause them to
come out at high speed and you
could be burned. Never turn the cap
when the cooling system, including
the pressure cap, is hot. Wait for
the cooling system and pressure
cap to cool.
Caution
Failure to follow the specific
coolant fill procedure could cause
the engine to overheat and could
cause system damage. If coolant is
not visible in the surge tank,
contact your dealer.
1. Remove the coolant surge tank
pressure cap when the cooling
system, including the coolant
surge tank pressure cap and
upper radiator hose, is no
longer hot.
Turn the pressure cap slowly
counterclockwise about
one-quarter of a turn. If you hear
a hiss, wait for that to stop. This
will allow any pressure still left
to be vented out the
discharge hose.

The coolant reservoir for the TPIM is
filled with GM Premix DEX-COOL
coolant. SeeRecommended Fluids and
Lubricants 0399. If using this mixture,
nothing else needs to be added.
The coolant needs to be replaced at
the appropriate interval. See
Maintenance Schedule 0390.
Checking Coolant
The vehicle must be on a level surface
when checking the coolant level.
The coolant reservoir is in the engine
compartment. See Engine Compartment
Overview 0300.
Check to see if coolant is visible in the
reservoir. If coolant is visible but the
coolant level is below the indicated
mark, there could be a leak in the
cooling system.
Caution
Do not run the engine when there
is a leak in the PLUG-IN cooling
system. This can cause a loss of all
coolant and can damage the system
and the vehicle. Have any leaks
fixed right away.
How to Add Coolant to the
Coolant Reservoir
If no problem is found, add the proper
DEX-COOL coolant mixture at the
coolant reservoir.
The coolant reservoir pressure cap can
be removed when the cooling system,
including the pressure cap, is no
longer hot.
1. Turn the pressure cap counterclockwise and remove it.
2. Fill the coolant reservoir with the proper mixture to the indicated
mark on the side of the reservoir.
3. Reinstall the pressure cap tightly.
Caution
If the pressure caps are not secured
and tightened properly, coolant loss
and damage to the PLUG-IN cooling
systems or vehicle may occur. Make
sure the caps are properly and
tightly secured.
Check the level in the coolant
reservoir when the cooling system has
cooled down. If the coolant is not at
the proper level, repeat Steps 1 and 2,
then reinstall the pressure cap. If the
coolant still is not at the proper level
when the system cools down again,
see your dealer.
