I had a similar experience with my 20V urQ. To cut a very long story short, don't
place too much reliance on the coolant reservoir min marks. Fill it to about 5 mm
above the max mark and check to see if this has solves the problem. On my car
the effect was most pronounced on a right hand bend and particularly on long fast
roundabouts!
Hope this helps,
