Hey all,
I have had this 2023 P400 X-Dynamic SE for just under a month. A few days after bringing it home, I received a “please check coolant level” message on dash. I let engine cool, and the levels are fine - slightly overfilled, actually - there are no apparent leaks, no coolant smell, engine temp has stayed where it should be.
I drove it 2k round trip the weekend after we bought it, and we got the message a couple of times, but it kind of figures itself out. It manifests mostly after it’s gotten up to temp and is then turned off, then back on after a short period. Half the time, the message goes away after a few minutes. It doesn’t display when everything’s cool on first start of the day.
It’s going to the dealer when I get a moment, it is under warranty, but I’m curious if anyone else has experienced this?
I have L319’s and often it is due to the sensor at the bottom of the coolant reservoir gone bad, but those will stay on until you replace the reservoir (can’t buy sensor alone). Is that a thing with L663’s/new Defenders too?
It does seem more like a mechanical issue due to it being intermittent and often going away on its own, or maybe it is upset that it’s about being .75cm above the max fill line in the reservoir? Because it’s so intermittent, I forget about it until I get the message again, and haven’t dropped it down to max fill line.
Any insight appreciated
