Coolent leaking
rooneytoon2004:
Hi all,
noticed that my coolent level dropped.
the last time i checked, the coolent was at max level when my milage is ard 5k.
recently i checked (milage ard 9k)...the level was halfway btw max & min :scared:
anybody has the same problem before? pls advise.
SoL:
Probably best to go for checkup. Soon, before your car overheat and stall in the middle of expressway! ;D

That is normal, nothing alarming.
When the car is running, the engine is hot, the coolant will moderate the engine temperature, pick up the heat (heat transfer). Some of the coolant (water) will evapolate away, so is natural that you need to top up the water every now and then, as long as not very offen. Just like you need to top up the battery water, otherwise, where is all the battery water gone to?

Check if there is a greenish puddle underneath your car and check if there are leakages at all the connections (from the radiator to the engine..etc)
Even though my Latio run on CNG ,my coolant level also drops but no so much as yours
