Truck Coolant Leak Repair Service in Tennessee & Mississippi

For professional truck Coolant Leak Repair Services from expert diesel mechanics in Tennessee & Mississippi, call Specialized Truck Repair today.

Truck coolant leak issues can be very complicated. It can become a very expensive problem if you ignore a truck coolant leak for too long. If left unchecked it can ultimately lead to engine failure. Once a coolant leak starts rarely does it get better. No matter what radiator you have, whether heavy duty, basic or semi, your cooling system needs to stay free of leaks in order to operate well. A small leak can cause temperature increase, create an air pocket and lead to overheating.

There Are Primarily Three Places You Can Have Engine Coolant Leaks:

  1. External leaks
  2. Internal leaks
  3. Leaky rad cap

How to Find the Coolant Leak

External Engine Coolant Leaks

External leaks are the easiest to find, most of the time you will just visually see them.

The source may be:

  • Rad hoses
  • Water pump
  • Freeze plugs
  • Heater core
  • Radiator
  • Overflow tank
  • Cracks in engine block, cylinder head, intake manifold
  • Blown head gasket leak externally

Internal Engine Coolant Leaks

An internal leak  be noticeable, when the coolant level does not stay constant. Also, you find that you need to constantly refill the tank or your engine overheats.

The source of internal leaks could be the fault of:

  • A cracked block
  • Cracked cylinder head
  • Leaking intake manifold
  • Blown head gasket

Rad Cap Engine Coolant Leaks

If you have a leaky or weak radiator cap, you may have loss of coolant in the overflow tank. This could create an air lock in the rad as well.

Other Things Could Be:

  • The cap is not fitting property
  • If the cap is the incorrect cap for the radiator

This will also cause pressure loss and engine coolant leaks.

A minor problem can easily turn into major ones when overlooked. Get the problem stopped before it turns into a tow-in event causing even greater cost and downtime. Book an appointment today with one of our highly skilled mechanics.

Critical: Professionalism, QualityI wouldn’t use the clowns again! Came in because my regen light was on and wouldn’t go off and check engine fault code was on. They preformed 2 parked regens and used their computer. They said I needed an ECU update, but I just had the ECU replaced 3 months ago. Then they tell me their computer can’t update the ECU because their software is out of date. But yet they still charged me $193.49 for using the computer. It was a complete waste of my time and money. They didn’t get anything resolved, they must be desperate for money!Service: Auto engine diagnosticI wouldn’t use the clowns again!

Paul was great with me, was broken down with leaking air line, got me out in a timely manner. Employees seem highly no l knowledgeable. Prices were given before with started (after they assessed problem). Everyone was super nice and friendly. I used to own a auto repair shop so I understand some of these reviews, one time we had a customer for an oil change, in our shop the car didn't start, he called police we assessed problem and his fuel pump went. One customer accused us of stealing her speakers! From what i saw this place is five star.Paul was great with me, was broken down with leaking air line, got me out in a timely manner.

Positive: Professionalism, Punctuality, Quality, ValueI will recommend anyone and everyone to Angel’s Truck Service. My family and I were on a road trip and were in desperate need of help with our lights. We walked into the shop and everyone was extremely busy there. Even with them being busy, Tyler came out to help us right away! He was professional and knew how to get the job done. Within 30 minutes my family and I were back on the road. We called 5 other RV/truck repair shops that all said they were too busy to help us. We are so thankful and grateful that Angel’s Truck Service understood that we had an emergency and jumped to the rescue. Thank you for helping make our trip safer and a much better experience.Service: ElectricalI will recommend anyone and everyone to Angel’s Truck Service.
