Zer0 Cylinder

alright, i turn my s4 n/a on this morning....and the feared BEEEEEPPPPP starts going. I check the oil...its like 1/2 quart low, so i dump the most part of a quart in. while im there, i check the coolant, the reservoir tank is up to the full line. get back in the car, same BEEP...........so...what's next???

Any lights come on? Generally the 'add coolant' light will come on, or the oil low light. Any lights? Sure it's not the CPU freaking out and keeping the door buzzer on?

didnt pay attention to any lights, im at work now. i just called my dad and got him to turn it on, move around in the driveway....he couldnt get the buzzer or any lights to come on. will the oil just being 1/4 quart low make the beeping come on???

Nope, generally it has to be around 2 quarts low for the oil buzzer. It could be the coolant buzzer however.

call me stupid, but i dont know how to properly add coolant properly....i just put it in the reservoir tank, and it usually sucks it out.

Generally that's all you need to do. However if it's *really* low, it won't suck any in. This will require removing the cap, filling it up there, bleeding the air out (there's an air bleed cap right near the upper hose on the radiator that you unscrew), fill it up until it just starts to bubble out of there then put it back in, fill it some more and you should be good to go.

its got a small leak somewhere, and it's always just sucked it out of the tank....as from what my dad said, it just did the same.....but ill fill it up and make sure its good asap....thanks for the help.
