Hi all ive a bit of an issue or maybe a non issue I purchased a cooper s a couple of months ago.

Yesterday popped the bonnet after a spirited run to see a little coolant dribbling from the coolant bottle lid. Once the car had cooled I checked the level it was just below the min level, ive topped this up since I havent checked it since but the car doesnt over heat or anything sits at a constant 90 once heated! Is the a warning light or just standard fare?

Maybe cap wasn't on tight or needs changing? Keep an eye on the coolant level at every fuel-up for a while and you'll see if something is going wrong.
