Topping off coolant every 3 months.
Is this normal to throw the HU code for more coolant every 3 months? I put about half a cup in the res and the code goes away. Is this to be expected in summer?
Do I have an overly sensitive sensor?

You probably have a slow leak somewhere I would guess...
Is the level almost up to the black tab inside the tank when it throws the code?
I saw in winter the coolant level goes down, but in summer it kinda should expand.

I just found that mine is leaking too... Apparently not at the stage when it loses a lot of coolant, but was a couple oz's low. Crap, there goes another $50
