Help with engine warning light. Hi
When I start my car (engine cold) the low coolant warning light comes on. I checked and the radiator and overflow tank are full. Also no visable leaks. Once the engine has warmed up and I turn it off and resart it, the warning light will disapear. As long as the engine is warm, I can run without the warning light. Whenever I start it cold the warning light appears until the engine is shut off again.
Any ideas?
Thanks JA

Thanks for the input. It really insint hurting anything. It is a little frustrating, but I am getting use to it. I assume if I take it to a GM dealer it will cost a small fortune to fix.
