No idea. It doesn't just disappear. My car is never left unlocked, so no one could have popped the hood and sucked it out.. Any ideas where the antifreeze could have poofed to?

The guy at advance auto parts pulled the code with his scanner, and erased it.. All went back to normal.. And the antifreeze was refilled prior to erasing the code.

Sleeper, why?

How much anti-freeze was added ??

The anti-freeze went somewhere, just hope it's not entering the oil, that's why I'd check it..

I will check it first thing in the morning..I filled it up to the fill line. rough guestimate would be about half a gallon?

Wow, yes check your oil level, paying attention for any anti-freeze on dipstick. Would look lil odd on the dip stick. (hopefully that is not where it went)..
