Hi
I'm not losing any coolant at all. I wouldn't have thought it was normal for this to happen. I had the car serviced yesterday and drove it home - about 1.5 miles. I then drove about 2 miles today and the light came back on. I let the car cool and it was still on. The water level had fallen down to about 1 cm below minimum. I unscrewed the expansion tank cap and the water level,rose back above the maximum level.
I have noticed some metallic sunstance around the rim - one of the garages said they thought that some radiator leak sealant had been added although I've had the car for 4 years and it's only just appeared.
I'm not losing any water at all but it's not as blue looking as it used to be - could it be a pump problem? Garage folk didn't think so as its not overheating.
Thanks
