Hi all,

Around mid-July of this year I brought the car in to the dealer because of very low coolant in the reservoir. I also mentioned that mist would ocassionally come out the vents. They topped off the coolant and said to observe it. They are assuming it could be the heater core. Beginning of August I brought the car back again because of low coolant and the dealer performed a pressure test. The test passed. They also said they checked the catch tray (I forgot what the exact term was) and it was dry. They topped of the coolant and said everything was fine. Now the coolant in the reservoir is low again.

Any suggestions?

TIA
