Coolant

Keep having to top up coolant every three weeks or so. Searched for leaks with no luck and certainly no evidence on floor etc.
Any suggestions. Thumbs Up Current Volvo XC90 R Design T8

Have you noticed more smoke than normal from exhaust Question

I have seen this on older vehicles where coolant is leaking into engine - head gasket/warped piston heads - can cost a lot to repair if not dealt with quickly Big Cry

i had this too.... it was apparently leaking out of the thermostat and then collecting in the undertray/evaporating... the dealer changed the header bottle to start with (a guess rather than actually searching for the leak); and it was still leaking so they had to look properly, and then found the actual cause
