I was wondering if anyone could help me with this. I have a JDM GT-four and drive on the right hand side. Sometimes while driving I hear a sound like water swooshing around in the engine, towards the passenger side of the car (left hand side). At first I thought it could be the W2A intercooler...but it's topped off..and any water movement won't make that loud of a sound...then I thought i was crazy (lol) but other ppl hear it too haha..

It just sounds like water moving in a mostly empty reservoir...

you may need to bleed your system if air is in the heater core you will hear sloshing sound....turn the climate control to hot take the cap off an try to get it to burp and add coolant


sounds good. I will try this!

you are low on coolant or you have air in the system. its water rushing into the heater core


Thanks!
