1998 Mazda Millenia V8 Four Wheel Drive Automatic notsur miles

Hi how are you? My car keeps overheating. I have to pour water in the radiator everytime I get ready to go somewhere. Can you please tell me what might the problem be? And what will be the average cost to get it fix

Is there signs of leak anywhere? Smoking from exhaust or engine compartment, wet spots anywhere?

The first step would be to pressure test the cooling system to determine where the coolant is going. I'm afraid though that you continuing to drive it with this condition has likely led to severe internal damage now. It probably has a blown head gasket now.
