coolant level is allways on when i start her up an comes back when driving checked coolant and its fine any though

Little float in the bottom of the header tank stuck or the sensor fubarred.

It is possible to clean the sensor sometimes with some domestic de-scaler .. but a new header tank is only about £35 (I think) and comes complete .., as the sensor is not removeable

[Jimbob]

sounds like the sensor in the tank is knackered..

you can clutch at straws and jab the float with a pencil or similar, or spend £30 on a new tank to fix

(or remove the plug from the bottom of the tank and bridge with a paperclip)
