maybe your lines have a leak? i broke one yesterday doing maintnence, it broke easy cuz the cars like 13 years old. maybe you've got the same problem? have you noticed a puddle when you park for a while? and if its only when you drive i'd guess its in your return lines coming from the engine. but who knows, good luck man.

some o fthem suffered with poorly constructed egr coolers.easy to check by removing the metal pipse connected to it and looking for any signs of wetness.if there is check with your local dealer as there are identification marks on the egr cooler to identify which generation of egr it is.it may need replacing if it is the older style and should be done for free

my problem with water loss is in the heater core. Well, not the core itself, but them **** engineers instead of finding a nice direct way to connect the core with the motor for water supply, they used several goofy pieces that fit together and leak if not done just right. Well, after I spent all the time and pain replacing the core, these stupid things don't fit together right and leak a bit.
