I was loosing a large amount of coolant- the max to min line, in about a week.
I got the car pressure tested, and the only leak they found was a small rubber seal to the heater matrix was split- so it was replaced.
They retested the car, and no leaks.
Ever since then, i have still been loosing coolant- but at a much reduced rate. In a 2 month period it lost from the max line to the ridge in the bottle. Now i would be happy to accept this as normal usage if you guys have experienced similair stories but my old car never used a drop, and if it did it was over 6/7 months or so.
My only other thought, was that it was the bottle top. As it looked worn and it came off and screwed on a little easy. I have since got a new cap from Seat which looks to be a newer design and it fits alot more tightly. I have topped up with G12 as of this morning so we will see how it goes.
If it still loses some though, does anyone have other ideas????
As said its been tested twice and they cant find any leaks. To be honest its becoming a bit annoying now and marring the ownership experience a bit.
Cheers guys
