My car listed above is the LX model. It gets hot in traffic only and takes in water, then fine. Until water is again needed about every three to four days. Was pressure tested. Ect is okay, no water leakage at all and rough idle.

Get checked for internal leakage with a head check. This is a simple and quick test for exhaust gasses in the cooling system. If this is positive you will have a head or gasket problem. The test will take about ten minuets to do.
