2009 Tiguan 2.0tdi 4motion

Post by Tsalie-TDI »

Howsit guys

The wife has a 2009 VW tiguan 2.0Tdi 4motion and she loves this car but there is a problem.

The coolant is leaking and causing the coolant night to come on but it's leaking inside the car passenger and rear passenger floor is soaking wet. If I replace coolant with water no water runs out the car all inside

Pleas help

I'll hazard a guess that's it's the heater core leaking. If you can find where the coolant goes into the heater matrix through the firewall, and can temporarily bypass it by joining the pipe going in to the pipe going out, you can check if the leak stops.
Sounds like the leak is bad enough to be worried about an overheating engine so I'd get it sorted asap
