The low coolant light is from either low coolant level in the reservoir or a defective sensor in the reservoir bottle. Sounds like a speed-sensitive vibration - probably tire balance but could be a bad tire.

Could the light come on if a fan stops working and what if it goes off for like a houer and comes back on

I have a 2002 Cougar 5-speed, V6 that is having a major oil problem. It's leaking on the motor & my tail pipe is completely black. Small small oil spots on the ground as soon as I put it in park but no major puddles. The smell is awful & it's smoking when I park it after driving it. Had my oil changed on a Wed and by that Sunday, it was completely dry. Not even enough to wet your finger. Please, any ideas on what may be causing this???? 1 Answer
