Since it's going in anyway, mention it to the service guys & play dumb. They may just fix it for you.

I think they have to drain the coolant anyway.

Probably a bubble or air pocket somewhere in one of your coolant hoses.

could definitly be a air pocket cuz if u filled it and it was ok then it sounds resonable, if its ur thermostat i dunt think you would be able to drive cuz it would keep over heating...def mention it the acura parts/service..by me the people are nice say its ur friends CL havin a problem haha.. and if it continues bring it back to acura and blame it on them tell em it was fine when u came in n now its broke hahaha

thermostat, rad cap, bubble. all possible explanations.

btw, did you fill with 50/50 mix or pure antifreeze ?

Allout

The initial problem of being low on coolant is the concern. Could be as simple as a bad thermostat causing a boil over of coolant to a blown head gasket. Good thing it's going in.
