  • Coolant Warning - Not low on Coolant?

    Hi Guys,

    I've got a 2004 Golf MK5 2.0 FSI.

    I got a dash warning of Check Coolant, I checked and it seems fine. I did abit of Googling and it said to top up with water, so I did and still the warning persists.

    1 thing I did notice though, the coolant appears to be transparent and not red/purple like I've been used to in previous VW's.

    I've also tried using a flat head to remove scale from the sensor prongs inside the tank... No help.

    I'll be taking it to a garage tomorrow for possibly a coolant flush or tank (and sensor) replacement.

    Does anyone have any idea if that would be the right way to go? Any other ideas would be greatly appreciated.

    Cheers

    Reservoir could be faulty. Replace it there not expensive or hard to change.
