Is it actually losing coolant? as the coolant level low message is a common fault, fixed by either changing the sensor or the coolant reservoir itself. |

It’ll probably be the sensor, easier to change the whole coolant reservoir. |

It’s not unusual for a failing oil cooler to contaminate the coolant with oil which then shows up in the expansion tank, requiring replacement as part of the job, as well as a thorough flushing of the system.

Change the tank, its £30ish and they often fail when you drain the coolant to perform a job... |
