I have just had head gasket fitted but I still seem to be topping up with water.Also had new radiator fitted at the same time...I have checked all the hoses and there is no water on the drive when parked. There is no water inside on the carpets.
But on checking the expansion bottle the water drops down to under the mark so I top up with at least 2/3 cups of water every week. I dont understand where the water goes.,.the car drives perfect.

The temp gauge is always at the half way mark and I have lots of long runs so its not over heating.

I have had a new heater matrix but I can hear gurgling of water passing around the tubes. It as if it is taking water from the coolant system...is that possible??? could it be I am losing water as I go along from sort sort of overflow ??? contacted to the heater.

Any advise Thanks
