where oh where does the cooling fluid go?

Post by jasikasisback »

I have no idea where the coolant is going as there is no puddle under the car after I park it...it appears to be going lower and lower very very slowly...this was not the case originally....i fear that the coolant is leaving the car throught the exhaust...but how do I tell that this is the case? the oil looks good in the dipstick....the car doesn't overheat...a big mystery to me...

Just yesterday checked the levels after driving and they were a bit low...I opened the reservoir cap and the fluid filled back in but when I sealed it up again eventually it went down below the minimum mark....

the car drives ok...but this is scary scary...:(
