Had been noticing coolant resovoir level dropping below min now and again, today thought was unusual it went up... Had pressure test on hoses and radiotor, slight leak from what we thought was a valve... Replaced and level still dropping way below minimum now and again, coolant level warning light on and overheated.. Only overheated once, stopped right away and topped up, steam everywhere.. Had head recon done few months ago, so now checking that was pressure tested... Pressure testing whole coolant system again...

Hi guys I have a really confusing problem. During long drives, after my engine warms up my fan goes crazy to the point my side mirrors shake. Yet according to my thermostat my car is perfectly fine and has never overheated. I even did a complete cooling system flush. Where I used a hosepipe to flush and back flush my radiator and engine block until clear water ran out on both directions, added some wynns cooling system flush with distilled water and drained the mixture after 10 minutes of idling, added the proper coolant and changed the thermostat. I can 100% confirm that my cooli

Hey, just had a mini disaster on the Mk2. On the radiator, the plastic fitting for the hose off to the expansion tank has snapped. I don't know what to do about this, do I need a whole new radiator? ECP and VWHeritage are not bringing up promising results.

9N3 1.2 BMD engine radiator fan not working
Andyt157 posted a topic in Engine, Transmission and Exhaust
Having problem with fan. After a good run and stationary for about 15mins temp gauge rises and alarm sounds but not all the time. Had it looked at by 2 garages. 1 couldn't find a fault. Other replaced cooling fan sensor and said could be the fan control unit. This has now been replaced also. It's appears its still not working. Any ideas on what to look at next? -

Since i bought my 6N 1.4 8v the expansion tank has been a pretty uniform shade of pink as if G12 has dried all around it, making it impossible to tell the level. I've never thought much of it as the engine seems to cool pretty well (never really goes over 80/90c even on 300 mile motorway trips) and I can see some coolant when i open the filler cap and look into the tank. What are your thoughts on this? Any way to clean the tank? Am i in trouble? Bought a bottle of G12 for some daft price a few months ago for this purpose but has since slipped my mind. Cheers!
