[QUOTE="mk_, post: 3420829, member: 581301"] Put a piece of cardboard underneath where you park your car for the night and park over it. See where abouts the leak is coming from in your engine compartment. This way you can atleast pinpoint which side of the engine you may be leaking from. As stated before, your cooling system is operated via pressure, so when full, it should stay full. If you are low on coolant, its going somewhere, ie leak, burning in the combustion chamber. Without looking at the vehicle we really can't help you, could be anything; leaky hose, water pump failing, head gaskets, etc. Sounds like coolant should be replaced soon anyways by the way you described it, but find out if theres a leak first and fix that. Use the coolant stated in your manual. Good luck! Michael [/QUOTE]
