Noah Coolant Level Low

Hi, I have a 2014 Toyota Noah hybrid with 88630 km. The check engine light came on, and the error memory says the coolant level is too low. I've checked the reservoir and it's below the minimum. Could this be a simple top-up, or something more serious?

Hey, I have a Noah too! I had a similar issue not too long ago. The check engine light stressed me out! Have you checked the radiator cap for any leaks or damage? Also, could there be air pockets in the system? That can cause the level to fluctuate.

Thanks for the quick response! I haven't checked the radiator cap closely yet, will do that tomorrow. How did you solve your coolant issue? Was it a big deal, or something relatively easy to fix?

Turns out I had a tiny leak somewhere. Couldn't find it myself. Because I wasn't sure and didn't want to risk engine overheating or head gasket issues, I just took it to a workshop. They pressure tested the system and found it quickly. Best to be safe, right?

Thanks! I appreciate the advice. I took it to the workshop as you suggested, and they found a small leak in a hose. Repair cost was 52€. Problem solved!
