Maintenance and care
■If the coolant level drops within a short time of replenishing
Visually check the radiator, hoses, engine coolant reservoir cap, intercooler
coolant reservoir cap (if equipped), drain cock and water pump. If you cannot
find a leak, have any authorized Toyota retailer or Toyota authorized repairer,
or any reliable repairer test the cap and check for leaks in the cooling system.
