Constant noise from "add coolant"
It might be a stupid question but I would like to know
When I start my car the add coolant beeps for the first 3 minutes, then it stops when the temperature needle is in the middle of the gauge.
It also do this when I make a turn and steps on the gas for maximum acceleration.
Is this normal?
I have filled the car with as much water I can but it still makes noise

If you are filling it correctly, and you have not recently opened the system, then it is probably a bad sensor.
HUndreds of threads exist about coolant... A quick search will locate them.

I'd say you have air in the system. I know from more than one experience. All it take is a little hole in a coolant/heater hose, or a bad clamp. The reason you only hear it a start up is: The air is sucked in during cooling and goes to high point. i.e. ( The filler neck)....Then as you car warms and your thermostat opens the air is circulated into the sysyem. I can really see it with my Power FC the commmander temp will jump right as the themo opens. The air in the system will also a higher running temp.
I sugguest you take a very close look at all of your hoses and clamps. Then burp the system, this should help your problem.
