RE: Antifreeze

You can check your oil for coolant by pulling out the dip stick
and lighting a match or cigarette to the drop at the end. If it
sputters there is coolant mixed with the oil.

Any ideas where that water is going?
 Vic

If there is no leak in the pipes nor radiator nor heater matrix and the rad
cap is in good nick, it can only go out the exhaust ( doesn't have to be a
big plume) or into the oil
All cars will leave a steam cloud when first starting up , especially in
higher humidity areas, but this should disappear
Ask a friend (or wife- not that they cant be friends!) to drive behind you
to see if the cloud fades- mind you in UK winter weather this may mean a
long drive.
OR have a friendly radiator shop pressurise the system overnight, that will
clearly indicate something amiss
