My car has 248k miles and to be honest am not complaining.I've been pouring coolant into it and it seems to be evaporating somewhere in the engine block.The reservoir is chock full and i dont see any leaks but i've smelt burning coolant before. My car is not smoking, nor is the oil in the engine another color other than black.The oil cap does not have any white reside on it at all.I've peered into the the radiator and noticed that the fluid is not too clear i'd say its grayish. The upper radiator hose warms up after a few seconds of the car running so am gonna rule out a bad thermostat. When i rev the car i dont see any bubbles coming out of the radiator.This car to date has never failed an emission test. One of the fans"drivers side" is not running at all. The passenger side fan will run when the car is hot and when the ac kicks in. What could be wrong with this car.Could the fan be an issue or am i looking at a Head gasket failure/Cracked head? My maintenance list as per two years back is,Timing belt,all belts plus hoses, water pump x 2,valve cover gaskets,radiator,alternator,thermostat etc plus the regular tune up's.
