I am experiencing a drastic coolant leak. It is coming from some box in the side of my Tiguan engine block. The picture is behind and slightly above the coolant after run pump. I do not know what the black box is but it is about 6 inches long and attached flush with the engine with only one...

Hey fellow enthusiasts, I am a hobbyist who loves to fix up my own car. Recently my Jetta gave me the red warning for coolant. Turns out I had a pretty bad coolant leak. The car wouldn't drive more than 10 miles before leaking out all the coolant I added in. I was investigating the leak and...

Bear with me please I'm new to this. My son's 2002 Jetta wagon 2.0L. The car has had some sort of small coolant leak for a while needing antifreeze added every so often and I'm guessing it has been getting worse he just didn't realize it but I don't know that for sure. My son left for Alaska a...

My Heater Core blew up and spewed steam and Glycol all over me last week. I was quite dizzy and high for sometime. The car water temp raised to 230 or so and stabilized enough for me to get home. The oil temp climbed to 240 and stabilzed. Today, I circumvented the Heater Core at the firewall...

This past weekend I noticed I was leaking coolant pretty good. I found where it was leaking from, which was/is leaking around what looks to be a sensor that plugs into my engine (97 VR6). I think its the engine temp sensor because its leaking coolant. The engine never overheated or ran hot. It...
