Hey guys, I checked my coolent leak today and my coolent has gone down again, and I checked my engine over and no coolent leak? is the engine burning it up or something? I've already gotten it fixed at mazda once and it doesn't seem to be leaking in the same spot above the turbo. I don't know whats up.

Try checking you coolant after the car has sat for a while, to give the engine a chance to cool off. Maybe after it sits overnight? That way, you'll have the same engine/coolant temperature every time you check. When the car is cold, the coolant level will be at it's lowest level in the resevoir.

i have a p5 and a buddy of mine has an es and we both lose coolant. it never goes low in the radiator, but our over flows empty in about a week to a week and a half. we can't find any leaks and the dealer can't either
when your car is warm never check the radiator fluid because its liable to come gushing out at you.. you NEVER NEVER NEVER check your coolant when your car has been running...when i work on my truck every monday in the army, the first thing i do is check the coolant, THEN i work on it.
But thanks for looking out for a fellow pro driver
