So what you're saying is that your coolant level is constantly low, even after you refill the resevoir?

hell yah its gone everytime i put my A/C on even for a couple minutes...its all ready drained

Are you leaking any coolant?? I had a similar problem where my coolant was leaking and I was always running low. My problem turned out to be a leaking water pump that I had to replace.

awww man dont tell me its bad like that.....im gonna go check on that in the chiltons book.

You should be able to see a coolant leak.
Check all of your hoses.
Check the front of your motor.

If you still can't find the leak, pull your dipstick. If the oil looks milky white, you've found your coolant leak.

Does this happen ONLY when you turn on the a/c?? Or does it drain if you dont use the a/c at all??

 

[Define_Sentra]

it drains like major after at least 2hours after the a/c was on, im guessing there's a hole somewhere in the hoses

Try this as it may be a very simple solution to a very simple problem. Replace your radiator cap.

I found the problem, but its major. it has a crack right on the front of the radiator the plastic part. So i guess my luck now is getting a new Radiator

Ouch! I had that same problem last year on my Nissan Motorsports radiator. Never understood why they had plastic ends. I now have an all steel radiator from Import Parts Hawaii. I think it was less than $150.
