The coolant chamber quickly dries up after about twenty five minutes of driving, as such I have to refill it every time before driving the car. The radiator seems okay , and no water mixing with the engine oil. Please kindly advise what to do. Thanks

You will have to get a pressure test done to see if there are any external leaks, this can be done while you wait and there should be little or no charge to inspect for this problem.
