oh wait! I have a question
you know about cars, right? Do you have to put coolant in the coolant thing or can it be water? I've put lots in and my car is still getting too hot

according to mr b3th
If it's an aluminium engine, it's best to use an anti-corrosion product, but it must definitely have antifreeze in it.

If you're overheating in this weather, it could be a serious problem:
if the car is 5yrs+, the most likely causes are a clagged radiator, or a slightly blown head gasket (if you keep having to top it up with water). Unfortunately, though you can buy stuff to 'unclag' radiators, it doesn't work, and the only answer is a new radiator.

Sorry, and all that.

they don't check that kind of shit in a service
service means "change oil, grease shit, check wear on brakes"

although they really should have checked the coolant level so it shouldn't be low.

yes. yes, they do.
there is a lot of "shit" to "grease" but generally they pay more attention to the safety parts, ie brakes, suspension, etc than to the engine.
