I'm having the same coolant leak issues, and they are occurring on a "frequently infrequent" basis -- the car won't leak for a few days, and then it will drain itself of the coolant from a spot near the right rear tire. When it's leaking, you can see the drip trail on the ground when the car has been moving.

Since I'm not having any issues with moisture in the trunk, I would assume (from what I've read) that it's not a leaky tank. Would a problem with the expansion valve cause this type of behavior and, if so, is this an easy fix?

(My mechanic couldn't isolate the issue, and wants to replace the coolant reservoir. I'd prefer not to, especially if this isn't the root cause of the problem.)
