topping off coolant
How often (if ever) should I be topping off my coolant?
I drive my 98 boxster with 85k miles a few times a week for 20-30 minute runs.
The coolant light blinks every 3-4 months and I add 4-8oz of coolant or water to make the light go off.
I don't see any coolant leaking on the floor and I don't smell anything like burning coolant not do I have white smoke on startup.
It is normal to have to top off the coolant like this? From what I gather it is not. What could some potential problems be that I can check?
I am considering driving this car cross country later this summer and I want everything attended to that can break so I am planning extensive maintenance on it: AOS, coils, plugs, injectors, sensors, filters, oil.
