Hi everyone,

My sister in law asked me to help her replace the coolant expansion tank that is leaking. It looks like this, it seems to be a common issue on those expansion tanks where the coolant evaporates through the joint.



Watching a youtube video it looks...

Hi All,

My 2009 BPC 174 engine is running like a train, seems it's sorted after the saga I've had getting there. See my pinned info thread if you are looking for engine specific info, or want to see the agony of repairing this unit from a zero knowledge base.

I was changing my oil last week and when I got under the car I noticed a little droplet of fluid under the DSG metal housing. Poking around I couldn't really figure out how it got exactly there and It didn't seem like a huge leak.

The fluid didn't smell like engine oil rather like nothing...

Just recently noticed strong smell of hot oil/transmission fluid from the engine bay after a run. Cannot see any evidence of leak of any kind anywhere. 2020 comfort line, 3000 K's. Any advice before I ring VW? Cheers

Not quite the time, but interested to find out potential issues involved with doing a DSG fluid and filter change?

2009 VW Passat CC 2.0L TDI, CBBB engine and a 6-spd DSG (pretty sure that's a wet clutch).

I want to do a fluid and filter change.

Any recommendations...

During the last couple of days the drips had turned to a dribble that was quite noticeable when the ending was running , I had a quick look and went straight for the filter for the DSG as...

Hey guys, now that my car is out of warranty, starting to do work on it myself. I’ve read in a few places that the 7 speed DSG in the Polo 6R has a lifetime fluid and doesn’t need to be replaced.

So just confirming, do any transmission related fluids need to be replaced? And if so,...

Hello,

Recently changed the gearbox oil in my polo to some Redline MTL to get rid of some dreaded 1st - 2nd gear high rpm crunch.

Car was raised on a leveled area and the fluid was drained completely. However when filling with the redline i could only fill about 1.3L back...

Initially had issues of washer fluid leaking out of my R36 as soon as the reservoir was topped up - so fast that I'd have the 'add wash fluid' light on straight away. This happened after I had my car serviced.

Bought it back to have the leaking/hose issues resolved. Warning lights gone,...

Since I'm new here, I posted this in the newbie's forum a few days ago. I didn't get any reply so I re-post it here, hoping that non-newbies may have an answer.
