coolant issue

Post by Dels_concept_gti »

i was woundering if you could help with an issue I have water "leak" its using quiet abit tbf and the light flashs at me : | so I get out look at the expansion bottle to see its nearly empty : \ as soon asi remove the cap (hot) slowly obvs lol the bottle fills back to max also dose this when its cold but downt go back down stays at max so i carnt put anymore in then go for a drive bang light comes back on very annoying then the process starts again :x .... I have had 4 people look at it and nobody can tell me whats going on annoying had a coolant pressure test done 10bar pu into the system and it didn't move so he tells me if it had a leak it would show on the gauge buy loosing pressure iv changed the expansion bottle and cap as was told mine was fooked but still the problems there I really hope somebody can help me out before a trip to VW £££££££ in live in Bradford west Yorkshire if somebody would be kind enough to sort this :lol:
