Hi,
I am suffering VERY slow coolant loss. Late year the dealer had the car for two days and replaced a suspect hose in the V. I am not super technical FYI. Anyway it went back recently and they couldn't find any cause for the loss which is still happening. Anyone suffered this?
Thanks in advance.
Chris.

RE: coolant loss
if they only changed a hose, could still be the after run pump
Best to get someone who has a pressure tester to check it. Will be much easier, and quicker to identify

RE: coolant loss
When the weather gets colder, it's common to get a few minor leaks, check all hoses and connections, and sometimes its just the cold itself making the level seem lower.
