What causes Coolant to suddenly come out the overflow after the car is shut off?
The car is overheating. Possibly the thermostat is stuck closed. Have it checked by a mechanic.
Why is Water is coming into the car and overheating?
If you mean engine coolant is getting into the car, the heater core is leaking coolant causing the coolant level to drop and that causes the engine to over heat.
What causes a car engine to be hot?
Lack of coolant, faulty thermostat, radiator fan not working...

What causes steam to come from the hood of a car?
That'll be your coolant, and there could be a number of things causing it... a blown head gasket will do it... a coolant leak where the coolant leaks onto a hot engine block will do it... a faulty radiator cap which opens too easily can cause this.... excess coolant causing the system to overpressurize and have to relive frequently will, as well.
What causes coolant to backup and spill over in the reservoir?
I had this problem ....Head Gasket or radiator cap
Why does antifreeze backup into the overflow tank?
Heat from the engine causes liquid to expand. It used to overflow onto the ground if it caused enough pressure to open the radiator cap. The overflow tanks were installed to automatically catch and return the coolant to the cooling system.
What causes a coolant reservoir to overflow in a 2001 Chevy Malibu during operation?
It could be a couple of things. The coolant system could be over full. There could be a clog in the radiator. Or possibly the thermostat but not likely. also, the ford coolant tank is pressure sealed, if the cap to the tank has a defective seal, it WILL overflow when you stop your car, or whenever the pressure builds
What causes coolant to backup and spill over in the reservoir until its all gone?
the reason why the coolant is spilling up over the reservoir is because the thermostat needs to be replaced because when the engine needs water the thermostat heats up from the engine and causes the springs to expant which opens a seal to allow the water throughout the engine i just realpaced the thermostat in my volkswagen

What would cause oil in the coolant reservoir in a 93 buick century?
There are a couple of things that can cause oil to get into your coolant reservoir. A blown head gasket or a broken piston ring are the most common causes.
What causes pressure to cooling system to force water into overflow reservoir?
Radiator pressure is caused by coolant expanding as it heats. The radiator cap allows that pressure to build until it reaches a certain point (determined by the manufacturer which is why it's important to use a proper cap for the vehicle) then a spring compresses and coolant is allowed past the cap seal. The coolant flows through a hose to the overflow tank. Now here's the magic part. Back in the day, before reservoir tanks, that excess coolant just fell to the ground, wasted. Now, with the tank, the liquid is actually drawn back into the radiator as the engine (and coolant) cool. The result, an always full radiator Cheers
What causes the coolant light to stay on on a 1996 Chevy Cavalier?
I'm having to guess it's the low coolant light? Possible coolant switch in the overflow bottle is dirty or defective., Is it low on coolant? Possible wiring issue to sensor.
