Low coolant level warning

Good day,

During my last trip down to the coast a low coolant level warning popped up a few times in the center display.
On all occasions I stopped, checked the level in the reservoir and also checked for leaks.
Coolant level normal and no visible leaks.
When restarting the engine the message is gone and will pop up again after many km's.
Disco V8 HSE.

Any idea what could cause this.

All help appreciated.

Probably the coolant "float" has become a "sink". Fix is a new bottle. Thumbs Up

Thanks a lot.
Just spoke to dealer.
No need to replace reservoir as the sensor is available as a separate item.

You can get the switch, but if it's the float that's failed, you need the whole bottle. Thumbs Up
