My daugter has a W reg. Ford KA and has noticed that water is leaking so much so that she is constantly topping up. What could be the problem.

A leaking hose ,leaking radiator ,leaking water pump or the headgasket is gone,a process of ilimination.Adding water alone to the cooling system is not recommended we are still having very cold nights.

Many thanks for assistance in pinpointing what could be the problem. Have advised daughter to get the car looked at sooner rather than later given that the car will be out of coolant - not something that she will have thought of.
