Coolant loss!

Anything related to the Kizashi can go here, but please look at the other headings first. Your topic may fit better under something else.

You'd be surprised at how fluent the rest of the world is in English--many times better than we Americans. :oops:

Actually, I travel a lot ... English ability varies widely - frequently surprising both ways!

... And American and English are indeed different ... Visits to England have confirmed that on more than one occasion

"Bumming a fag" in the UK means something so different from in the US.

No, not that one! But last business trip, it was pretty funny to see what we called different things

If it really is air, you should be putting in less and less each day, I would have expected you to purge all the air by now!
Top it up in the morning (when it's totally cooled down) and get it to the "HIGH" mark. Don't bother looking at the level again until the following morning when the engine has cooled down again. See how the levels compare - it should be the same.
I think you guys are correct. I guess I have purged all the air bubbles out of the system.
I haven't added more coolant since last week (Tuesday afternoon) and level is the same, exactly where it should be when I am checking every day, though I'd like to keep an eye on it for a while.

Well, I was born in the US, while my dad was finishing his PhD in the Oklahoma State University. Shortly afterwards we went back to Iran but I did my grad and postgrad studies in the UK and most of my twenties was spent in England so I have certainly been influenced by my upbringing in the UK. Having said that, English literacy level among educated Iranian adults is relatively high, well ahead of the regional average.

Sweet. 8-) Glad you were able to figure this out. Definitely disturbing when coolant goes missing!
