i have a problem... every few weeks my coolant bottle is more or less empty thing is i can see any leaks anywhere also for the past few weeks when its been cold theres constantly been white steamy smoke stuff coming out of my exhaust (have a video if needed) could my hg be knackered? the smokey stuff isnt thick just what i thought u normally get first time you start your car each day but i could be wrong . thanks for any replies :)
 
Check under the oil cap, if it looks like mayonnaise the HG is gone, if there is delicious oil then it's fine (Not overheating is it?).
 
check the bottom radhose, pretty common for the clip to rust away, can leak from there

Thats probably steam if you have no mayo...

The water system will probably be weaping somewhere (see above)
 
most common place of leaking is usually the bottom rad hose as mentioned above, probabyly only notice some drips once the engines hot and the systems pressurised.
