coolant light ?

This morning my coolant light and alarm went on when I turned the car on. I let it run for a second , turned it of and restarted the car, ( heard a weird sound like fluid moving ) the light and alarm did not go off again. I did check my coolant level and I am full. Could this be a bad sensor ? or something else ? ( water pump) I did have a coolant leak last month but had the overflow tank replaced since it was the source of the leak. Other than that my coolant system was checked and a few hoses were repalced when the tank was replaced. If you have heard of something similar please let me know. Thanks

Alarm BAD! BAD BAD BAD! The noise you heard was most likly air bubbles in the coolant pipe that runs across the firewall. Do not run this car when the alarm goes off! That's why it went off, somthings amiss! If you have not changes your AST, do so promptly. There are many out there that dismiss this stock AST problem as rumor and hogwash. YEAH RIGHT I SAY! The dealer told me my AST was fine and 45 miles later my car was on a flatbed to get a new engine! Make sure the system is burped of all air! Check these sites for how toos!
