Default Coolant reservoir leak

Just got a call from the dealer. My S4 is in for 5K service and they found a very slight coolant reservoir leak. It must be tiny, as the level was good a few days ago when I last checked, although there was a pink crustiness around the seam in the reservoir. Certainly no liquid was visibly leaking. They put a rush order in, but no word yet as to when it will arrive. Anyone else had this problem?

Default Had it on my B5.

The coolant expansion tank started leaking within 2 weeks of purchase. Replaced under warranty, no further problem. No sign of a leak on the new one, though.
