Asked by Guru992212 Oct 17, 2020 at 06:39 PM about the 2015 Chevrolet Equinox 2LT FWD

Question type: Maintenance & Repair

Is there a rad cap on this vehicle or do you just fill
the reservoir? I replaced the thermostat and filled
the overflow but still wants to overheat.

No, the reservoir is pressurized so there's no cap on the radiator itself. Make sure you get all the air out of the cooling system. Hope that helps! Jim

It does help very much! Thanks a lot! How do you get the air out?

You're welcome. Glad to help! If there's no bleeder screw you should, with the engine cold, remove the cap from the reservoir and start the engine. Add coolant to the full line and keep an eye on the coolant level as the engine warms up. As the coolant level drops down, keep adding to the full line until the engine is fully warmed up and the coolant no longer drops down. This may take up to 30 minutes so be patient. Then you should be all set. Hope that helps! Jim
