Advice Needed - Mysterious Loss of Coolant 850

posted by  someone claiming to be gnb on  Mon Jul 1 15:30 CST 2002 [RELATED]

I've posted this issue before - still unable to determine problem.

Losing coolant(antifreeze)- having to top off the coolant recovery tank once a month.

There are no signs of coolant on the garage floor or where I park at work.

There are no signs of oil in the coolant and no signs of coolant ion the oil.

My main concern is that somehow the engine headgasket has failed and coolant is getting into the combustion chamber. How likely is this given no other signs and the car is driving great ?

I have had this problem for about 6 months. Have replaced hoses and thermostat.

Really need some help on this one!

Thanks,

nathan
