Hey Guys - I was checking under my hood before doing an oil change and noticed that my intercooler coolant level dropped from the full mark down to about 30% above the low mark in ~10k miles. I'm totally fine with just topping it off and calling it a day, but a bit curious why the level dropped, just wanted to see if any 200t owners have experienced anything similar.

Car has just under 50k miles and as far as I can see, no leaks or bad hoses - my garage floor is bone dry. I do drive pretty spiritedly in the canyons often and I made some trips to the desert in 115* weather, so not sure if some coolant simply left through an overflow hose. Thanks in advance!

 

absent any leaks, i'd just fill to full mark when cold (as long as "cold" is written on the container) and monitor it.

FWIW my 16 200t developed a coolant leak at 25k miles. so it's not unheard of

gotta pay to play i guess. turbo stuff!
