  • NSW Mk3 Golf VR6 engine fault

    I have been proud owner of the VR6 for its entire life. With 200K+ on the clock it decided to have an engine malfunction. Not sure of the cause but sounded like it lost compression. OK, so turned off engine and turned ignition back on (not starting engine). Sort of humming noise for a minute or two. Then turned on engine, and sounds fine?? Any suggestions as to problem?

      Turns out it is a very slow leak of coolant.
