Does this apply to the V6 models. That is what I have. Would I be able to reconnect this tube with access from removal of the wheel well liner? If this was the case, would this drain all of the coolant out when it poured or just in the overflow tank.

This morning when I actually was able to take a closer look from the top, I noticed white crust around the rim of the overflow refill tube. Didnt notice any crystals. But I take her in to the dealership tomorrow so hopefully they find the problem.

Normal. Quit looking at it and freaking out.
Condesation. I'd bet you do a lot of short trips. Things aren't getting very hot to burn off all the condensation here and there. Same thing will appear under your oil fill cap. Condesation forms on the top surface of everything. You should see under the valve covers on a car that was started cold, and shut off before everything warms up. Looks like vanilla milkshake dripping off everywhere. Steer clear of sevice depts until you actually have a problem. The do it your self checks are.... are the oil and coolant at the proper levels and staying there over the past few months. Yes... don't touch a thing. If one of those fluid levels is screwed up, diagnose why. |

Makes sense, I will look at that filler tube that probably fell off, and then from there keep an eye on it. Would that build up eventually effect the radiator at some point and the quality of the coolant? |

Take a look inside the radiator to see if anything is floating around and maybe drain just alittle

UPDATE
Dealer said that there was a seal that went bad on the tube going to the resovoir which connects the two. Just in case future owners have a leak from resovoir area check that seal out. |

Just a question....Why would the dealer warranty your coolant flush? They dont warranty oil changes or brake fluid flush. Those are considered consumables...just like brake pads. If the motor oil was mixing with the coolant and you had a problem that was engine related....thank goodness you did not.....then they would have to do the work and that would include the flush. But since that was not the case, I am not surprised they didn't warranty it.
