Hi, when I drive my car about 2 days I have to fill up the reservoir of the coolant. Before I could start my car no problem at all now it doesn't start directly. I have checked everything, there are no leaks in my radiator or in the hoses. This all happened after I got my oil changed, can something have happened ? I went to 3 different garages they all say 3 different problems.

I thank you in advance

pressure check cooling system for a leak like a head gasket.

I don't think the oil change had anything to do with it. Here are two guides to help us find the problem and I do agree with HMAC300 that the head gasket is probably blown.

Please go over these guides and get back to us.
