Hi everyone,
Does anyone have any ideas about what I could check without much effort?
I've been experiencing coolant loss for some time now...
I've already replaced the flanges for the transition to the heat exchanger, as well as the radiator, which was cracked on the side, and the gasket from the coolant flange on the engine. However, the coolant loss is still present, although not as severe.
- No oil in the water
- No water in the oil
- No white smoke
- Starts well both cold and warm
- No noticeable loss of power
- The water pump doesn't appear to be leaking from above
- I've added UV dye to the coolant so I can better locate leaks. I tried pressing down for about 30 minutes while it was warm, but the level hasn't dropped... I haven't done a CO test yet, and that way I wouldn't be able to tell if the problem is with the oxygen sensor or, for example, the AGR cooler?
Regarding the car: Golf 5, manufactured in late 2004, 2.0 TDi BKD engine, has run approximately 305,000 km.
Best regards,
Tom

[Translating...] Beim BKD sind oft die Zylinderköpfe kaputt. Warmfahren, Ansaugkrümmer runter, und Abdrücken und am ersten Zylinder kontrollieren ob Wasser vor den Einlassventilen steht VCDS |

[Translating...]Danke!, dann fahr ich bei Gelegenheit noch mal eine Bühne mieten. Hab gehofft, dass es nach den Kilometern nicht mehr passiert und man das eher merken würde 😅 |

[Translating...]Nein das passt schon, der BKD hat es vorne. Hab aber selbst bisher nichts um Druck aufs Kühlsystem zu geben, das kann ich dort nutzen. |

[Translating...]Denke das Thema kann geschlossen werden, danke!
Hab ihn noch mal richtig warm gefahren und länger abgedrückt, diesmal ging der Druck weg und ich habs dann beim Starten gemerkt... |
