If you look at the inside of your trunk lid right above the cap you might find some white residue or some condensation. If thats the case you need a new cap. If not then you probably can live what you have until it fails.

Did you notice any water pooling up under the reservoir? Or was the leak so small that the amount of coolant leaked immediately evaporate? I had no water under my tank so I think the cap will be the answer. Thanks for you contribution.
