Circulation of the cooling system

If the engine is warmed (the thermostat is closed), cooling liquid circulates as follows.

For engines of the J20 models


For engines of the G16 models

When cooling liquid heats up to normal temperature and the thermostat is open, cooling liquid passes through a radiator core which needs to be cooled, and also on all above-stated chain of the movement.
