Hey Everyone,

I've got a 2020 RR Evoque P250S. We bought it used about 4 months ago, and have had to top up the coolant level twice (5000km).

I've never seen a drop of any fluids on the garage floor under this thing, so wherever this stuff is going it isn't making it to the ground. I had it at a high-end used dealer for an oil change and asked them to look around, and they saw no external signs of leaking at all.

Being new to RR is this normal? Has anyone else experienced this?

Thanks for the info.

I have a 2016 and the radiator hose down low is a press fitting vs the clamp. When the gasket or o ring goes you need to replace the hose. Mine is going in this w/e to the local kid garage who found the problem

I have no idea of the fate of the unaccounted for coolant either, just here to say that our 2012 Evoque (71k miles) has required the addition of coolant fluid, approx 8 ounces every 4000 miles. Since the coolant system is closed, I can't imagine the source of a leak other than from a known defective coupling or frank break in a coolant hose. When an engine requires frequent oil addition as in my Toyota Corolla, may it RIP, I attributed that to piston ring blow by in a 300,000+ mileage engine. Any idea, anyone, where the coolant escapes when there are no telltale leaks?

For what it's worth, I've been told by the JLR service person that because the turbo runs so hot, you can expect to lose a little bit of coolant to evaporation.
