Just curious, are you running your car hard or towing? I've read, you will use more fluid in both cases. If not, something isn't right with your vehicle. I've had mine for a year and didn't need any fluid before my one year oil change.

nope. i'm told that short trip driving will do it, but that doesn't fly with me. i asked if this would be grounds to see if the car is somehow not functioning properly and i was told no.

That's odd, most of my driving is short trips and mine went a year without needing a fill. If I had to fill mine all the time, I would get rid of it.
