In my past experience, this has generally indicated that the heater core was leaking. Is something similar going on here? Is this something easy to get to or a complete PITA like the coolant reservoir was? It doesn't appear to be a significant leak, as the coolant still reads full on the reservoir in the trunk.
My mechanic told me that one of my radiator fans wasn't coming on as well, not sure if this is related. I live in a very mild climate (SF) and I almost never drive in stop-and-go traffic, so I haven't really prioritized investigating this.

I have exactly same issue, has anyone experience with this what is wrong?
