Hey guys,
A few weeks ago when getting my car out from winter storage I noticed that the coolant level in my expansion tank was lower than it had been previously. I did a block test and it came up negative. I added some coolant, re-burped, and have driven the car a few hundred miles since with the level in the expansion tanks staying steady.
Yesterday I put on a new stainless steel crossover cap because my stock one seemed like it was getting close to stripping and I noticed it was missing the o-ring. The coolant level at the crossover was still completely full. I then drove the car about 20 miles to and from the store.
This morning I noticed that the coolant level in my expansion tank had dropped probably a half inch to an inch or so. I thought oh crap, I didn't burp it well enough and opened the crossover plug but it was still full (overflowing actually). The temperature this morning is pretty much the same as it has been when I have checked the level in the past.
Is this normal, or do I have a leak somewhere?
