One possibility to check is the water-heater on the throttle body.  The
gasket can go bad or the metal will corrode causing a small and difficult
to detect leak.  I learned the expensive way at the cost of a new throttle
body.

Subject: <E30> coolant leak?

Kyle,

My '85 is doing the same thing as yours.  I took it in to a dealer,
and they replaced the expansion tank cap.  However, after 1500 miles
of driving over 2 days, the light went on again.  So, back to
(another) dealer to see if they can find out what is eating the
coolant (I just did the suspension, so I don't feel like tracking down
a coolant leak!).

I'll let you know what they come up with.
