The can check it for cheap, and if it needs the flush or repair, is going to be maybe $80. It has not needed more fluid (3 weeks). Replies to this message: arodory (Feb 17, 2009 5:26 pm)

Replying to: nickel (Feb 13, 2009 3:30 pm) Thanks- I just took it to a local shop who could not find a leak. He said it is a closed system so you should not normally need to add fluid as I have done a couple of times over the past six months or so.
