Is this normal for these cars? I'm not sure what to think, because I just got this car.
Well, like mentioned above, all cars have always done this. The difference is that in the older cars, the "expansion tank" was built into the top of the radiator and you couldn't see the level of the coolant rise and fall as it heated and cooled.
