Where did it all go? There was a period of time when my 300D was losing coolant for no apparent reason. No signs of a head gasket leak, no coolant on the ground... it was just disappearing. After a while the cause became evident: a leaking water pump. However for several months it must have only been leaking while hot and/or turning, because I never saw any leak or any coolant on the ground.
