Hi All, new to the board here.
I am an Iranian and I own a pearl white Kizashi CVT FWD SE 2013 model.
The car is brand new (4 months-old) and I've got about 1100 KM on it.
About two weeks ago, when I was inspecting inside the hood, I have noticed that the coolant reservoir level is almost near the "LOW" marks so I added it up with SUZUKI LLC: Super (Blue). About 4 days later, it was almost LOW again. It seems the coolant magically disappearing and I cannot understand where it really goes. There is no visible leak that I can see and no puddle underneath.

Then again, I have inspected it yesterday closely and I saw some blue chalky residue on top of radiator fans. The first thought that comes to my mind is that the coolant is getting pushed out the reservoir overflow tube when the engine warms up (maybe because of a bad radiator cap) and then it sprayed over the fans. Is that possible?

ANY suggestions would be appreciated !!
