Why is car using coolant when it has never overheated and where is it going?

My 2001 Aztec has a small drip from the head gasket. It's not noticeable all the time, but I do notice a drip on my garage once in a while. I do know that the coolant is a Dex-Cool and not a regular coolant. Don't mix the two.

Can you mix cheap Coolant with your existing Coolant?
Yes, as long as you are using the correct coolant as recommended by the vehicle manufacture.

The remains of the old coolant can cause the new coolant to fail. Using the wrong type of coolant can also damage the engine.
Where in a 2001 ford explorer using a gallon of coolant per week with no visible external leaks dry passenger floor no white smoke and no milkshaking in the oil is the coolant going?
it is possible to have a small leak on the head gasket ,enough to let the coolant still leak into the clyinders and will account for a gallon to go weekly,and still show no signs of white smoke in the exhaust,also might want to check around the radiator fill neck to make sure it does not show a sign of cracks,this can cause coolant to vaporize out of the radiator and you will never see it leaking.....
What color coolant goes for yaris 07?
It is red. I would not take any chances of using the wrong coolant. Purchase the coolant at your local Toyota dealer and you will be 100% sure you are using the right stuff. You only need to replace the coolant every 3 years.

What would make a 1990 Mazda rx7 overheat?
If you are using the OEM radiator and it has never been replaced then some of the core may have collapsed blocking flow. If there is a lot of brown in your coolant this may be a good indicator of this. I recommend flushing the coolant system before moving to more expensive alternatives.
Why is coolant incorperated to a workpiece when using grinding machines?
You need a coolant when using grinding machines because if you don't have one the temperature rises on the machine. If the machine isn't cooled it can cause burns.
Beretta using oil no leak no burn can't find where it is going?
Check your coolant! Be sure it doesn't look like chocolate milk. If it does, that's where your oil is going. You did not specify which engine you have, but the earlier 3100 V6 engines (94-99) were notorious for cracked lower intake manifold gaskets. It usually resulted in coolant leaking out along the driver's side and down onto the transmission housing, but in severe cases the gaskets cracked internally allowing coolant and oil to mix.
Is there a Engine coolant sensor test for a carbureted 87 accord with a single sensor wire?
You can test the engine coolant sensor by using an ohmmeter. Attach the positive and negative probes to the terminals of the coolant sensor.
