Huge thank you for the update. Hate when people don't update their threads.
Same! Everything I learnt regarding my issue was from this forum, so it's the least I could do.
My passenger side Intercooler was the issue. It had a small crack only visible when I separated the upper and lower plastic housing from the metal center frame prior to throwing them out for how much trouble they've been causing me.
I kept finding my smaller axillary coolant tank empty every 2 or so weeks. So I checked the usual turbo coolant lines but they were completely bone dry.

Luckily for me, I had purchased the VRSF Intercoolers back in October but was too lazy to install after reading about nonretrofitting hardware. That couldn't have been anymore true. It was a pain in the ass to find 6 screws with correct threading as the stock hardware off the original intercoolers were made for plastic threads and not metal.

56k miles, driven like its stolen, daily
