Coolant drop

[markerboy2002]

Hey all, quick question. I did a drive of about 200 miles and my coolant dropped a bit. Topped it up and since then its been fine, no drop at all. Anything to be worried about?

No, probably. Mine goes up and down slightly anyway.

I've noticed that mine goes up and down. It was low about a week ago, I forgot to top it up. I went to top it up yesterday and it was bang on maximum... :S

Thanks everyone, set my mind at ease a bit

There should be no change in coolant level when you check it at the same temperature. Its a sealed circuit it doesn't go anywhere unless there is a leak.

Recently bled it or or changed the coolant? In my experience they like to settle a bit after a few drives, then you can top them up to the mark and it'll stay there

It was changed about a month back, but I've had no change since topping it up. So hopefully no more problem
