Coolant Level


Has anyone had any problems with anti-freeze level. I just noticed that mine is down to the MIN line. Could this be leakage or evaporation. I have 6100 miles and I've had two oil changes at the dealer I bought the car from.

hey man,
I just filled up my coolant today... It was way below the MIN line. I drove to Montreal and back last weekend so I think the long drive at 120kph used up the coolant so I refilled it today.

Same here with the level I have about 8000 on my hot rod and I noticed that it was down . I dont think this is a concern because the engine is still breaking in so it could be alot of things with it. but if you find yourself adding all the time I wold defintly do somthing about that I contacted the dealer and they said no worries till you notice your self seeing puddles. OH make sure you use Honda coolant very improtant it is not just standard coolant even thought it is green apparently they have special additives in there coolant that prevent the head gaskets from breaking down
