I had the same problem mine was leaking from the high valve I guess so Mechanic replaced valve but the way they found the leak they put like a special colorful liquid In all the system
and put on some special googles with a black light so they had to take out that coolant and then refill after new valve I paid for everything $100

yeah, i took it to my buddy's shop and before he did anything, he spotted the leak on the left side of the car (right next to where it says... "battery in the trunk"). i'm gonna get it fixed in about a week since his A/C machine isn't available right now.
is it true though what others said? that it has to be constantly used just to "prevent minor leaks"?

No says who, u its has to be on CONSTANTLY to prevent minor leaks??
bro leaks happens from using the ac all the time or heater all the time.. its normal wear and tear from the pressure ..
its like buying a brand new hose to wash your car, first couple of time, its nice and stiff, after couple years of washing your car and using, it get soft and start breaking on the side and causes leak... do u see where im going with this??
but 
BTW, would u please post couple pics your car stance.....!!!

haha... no, i agree with the normal wear and tear issue. i just brought that up cause it started from some guy who worked at a benz dealer. so i wanted to know what were some people's thoughts on that. don't worry, i was a non-believer from the beginning.
but uhhhh... as far as my stance... as much as i would take pics for you.. my signature was just one of those.... "temporary days". my buddy who owns a VW GTi and a Audi A4 happen to be inter-changing his wheels like he always does, and i was at his place detailing my engine bay. So i decided to ask him if i can "test fit" his wheels and surprisingly, they fit perfectly in a REALLY AGGRESSIVE kind of way. so i drove to a scenic area and took pics with my bro's DSLR camera
but i think i know what i want as far as what wheel setup to get. Matt black face with fat chrome lip (the ones in the pic are glossy black w/ chrome)
the only way i was able to pull it off with his wheels was cause both his V-Dub and his Audi have super aggressive wheels/stretched tire fitments. so it pretty much cleared everything in my car coincidentally.

concept. he's pretty creative. i would of never though of that even after seeing that a lot in the JDM scene.
makes me wonder just how much power he's pushing at the wheels.
