Coolant warning when not low

So my car is asking for coolant....opened up cold saturday morning was below max but above minimum. Took about 1/4 cup of BMW antifreeze to go above max. Car still asking for coolant./ Cold check this a.m. it was above max, yet after driving awhile, still asking for coolant.

Bad sensor??

Turned out to be a faulty turbo coolant line. Had new coolant lines and heat shield installed.
