V6 Expansion tank leak... Posted by magalar [Email] (#1325) [Profile/Gallery] (more from magalar) on Wed, 11 Dec 2013 06:32:21 Members do not see ads below this line. - Help Keep This Site Online - Signup |
Well, that very dim coolant smell was not a product of my imagination. Finally, the SID low-coolant warning appeared yesterday, so it's time to order a replacement tank.
For reference, my car (built June 08) had the new-style tank installed in 07/2009 at 10 000 km (6k miles). Now the car odo shows 100k km (60k miles) and the tank is 4 1/2 years old. I guess it's the most one can expect from these tanks ?
Anyway, timing is perfect since I was planning to do a coolant flush next week, as specified in the WIS maintenance schedule. Will need to find a friend with a garage, since it will be 20C bellow zero for the next few days...
