Engine Coolant?!
Does anyone know how often you should top up the coolant in a '02 Sti UK Type?

Never I would imagine. The level won't go down unless it's losing fluid. Haven't topped my 02 up in over 2 years/19K miles.

According to the handbook the level should actually be at the 'full' or 'max' mark when cold on level ground
