[QUOTE="Jerman, post: 429590, member: 3089"] bro, Hellraiser, Teejay & DanZ were correct. There must be leaking somewhere. I had similiar experience before. Firstly, [FONT=Times New Roman][SIZE=3]I changed the water pump and all works well but the coolant level still needs topping up 1 litre every week. No overheating and no sign of leaking whatsoever. Tired of the entire “drama”, so [/SIZE][/FONT][FONT=Times New Roman][SIZE=3]I sent the car for a "pressure test".[/SIZE][/FONT] [FONT=Times New Roman][SIZE=3] [/SIZE][/FONT] [FONT=Times New Roman][SIZE=3]Mystery revealed! Found that inlet hose hidden under the engine/intake manifold cover leaks. Never able to detect as it was covered. In the end, changed both inlet & outlet hoses and manifold gasket.
