Hunt for the mystery coolant leak starts in earnest tommorrow
I am losing around .5 of a liter per month.
My pick in this order is
1. oil cooler T seal
2. temp sender-although no visible sign
3. small leak in radiator or hose system
4. remote chance of head gasket
will post result and repair

Let us know what you find. Mine's low on coolant again(!)
I had the whole oil/coolant pipe thingy fixed (the one that we apparently all get at some point) back in April '05, and it was fine for a while. A few months later (December), it was giving me the low coolant warning around corners, so I topped it off with distilled water- and all was good for a few more months. It did it again this spring (topped off with distilled water again) and now it did it again this morning.
