Coolant
I have to top up my coolant every 3 weeks. Is it normal for a FD?
The story goes like this, initially, my coolant light came on, so I top it up thinking that it is just the time to top up. BUT 2 to 3 weeks later, the light came on again so I top it up again. This time, I suspected that there might be a leak. So I check the coolant level for 3 days (without driving the car) but the level remained the same. So what can possibly explain this? Help.

turn your car on and look in the engine bay. sometimes you will be able to see it leaking. just like what rated r1 said... a pinhole leak will only leak under pressure.
