Golf IV / Jetta IV :: 2001 1.8T Coolant Leak / Dripping Down Off Of Oil Pan
Just purchased a 01 golf 1.8t 5spd and noticed it has a small coolant leak.. Left parking over 2 days in the same spot and it builds up a little puddle.. It's dripping down off of my oil pan and I haven't been able to trace it back to where the leak is coming from..
I've been told it could be my water pump? The car has 92k miles.
Golf IV / Jetta IV :: Coolant Leak / Dripping From The Bottom Of Car
My 2000 Jetta 2.0 has a coolant leak. I searched and found a lot of mentions of the flange on the driver's side, and I have coolant dripping from the bottom of the car in a location that seems consistent with that, but I felt all around the flange and the hoses that are connected to it and it feels dry.
Where else could it be coming from? (yeah, I could jack it up climb under and look, but I haven't had time yet). I also seem to have an oil leak around the same location, but the dipstick tube was cracked near where it went in to the engine so I'm hoping that was the source of the oil.
Golf IV / Jetta IV :: Coolant Leak - Dripping At Front Right Tire
My car is a MK4 1.8t 2001 model.
Recently I've been losing a decent amount of coolant, and I noticed a puddle of water forming up right in front of my front right tire. I've inspected the engine bay, and the water seems to be coming from beneath the coolant reservoir itself, and forming a puddle under the windshield washer bottle. Which ends up dripping under the bumper in front of the right tire.
I didn't have any time to do more inspection, not even to take pics. The car is left at home as i don't want to drive it while it's leaking. Where to inspect or which parts to take off in order to spot the leak... No overheating has occurred, yet.
Golf IV / Jetta IV :: 2004 GLI - Slow Coolant Leak
I have a 04" GLI and I was thinking about doing a coolant flush. Looks like I have a slow leak. I was wondering where should I look in order to stop the leak. Put some coolant in about a month ago and now the coolant light is back on. Every morning when I pull out of my driveway there is a small leak under the driver side of my car. Is this an easy fix? If I do decide to do the coolant flush myself what is the recommended coolant replacement?
View 4 RepliesGolf/GTI VI :: Oil Leak From Drain Plug
I had my 10k service done at the dealership earlier this year, currently at 16.5K miles. My GTI was parked at my parents' garage for a week while I was away for travel. When I returned and went to move my car, I noticed a puddle of oil under the GTI. Since it was a sunday, there were no dealership service departments open, so I went to a quick change oil place and they told me that there is a leak at the drain plug. The tech noticed the oil was low, drained the oil and replaced the drain plug, and when they filled the oil, it immediately started leaking at the drain plug. They added teflon tape to temporarily work with the leak. I will be scheduling a service appointment at the dealer I had my 10k service done.
Have a MK6 and experienced a leak at the drain plug? Could this leak be due to the dealership service tech over tightening the drain plug at my 10k service? The quick oil change place did note that I came in with a leak from the drain plug, in case the dealership tries to blame the oil change place for the leak.
Golf IV / Jetta IV :: 2004 - Can't Find Drain Plug?
2004 Jetta 1.8T
Looking for the drain plug and I can't find it for the life of me..
There is a hex bolt on a black plate that is seemingly the lowest part of the whole front-underneath, but this isn't the oil, is it? It does have a washer, that hex bolt.
It's in front of the axle, right?
Which direction does it face?
Golf IV / Jetta IV :: Coolant Is Dripping Down From Exhaust Shield
I am leaking coolant at a slow drip but over a couple days my coolant light will come on due to low levels. I climbed under the car and I'm leaking right where the o2 sensors are on the exhaust. The coolant is dripping down from the exhaust shield which was just hanging there when I got under the car.

I have the 3.5 V6 Automatic 2010 95k miles. I have read places that say any fluid SP-III will work, then others that say any SP-IV. To my understanding, SP-III is not correct, and the fluid will need to meet SP-IV, is this correct? (Additionally, all the auto-part stores said Mecron SP-6 which is not easy to find).
Also, I have a mystery water leak, it is solely water dripping onto the exhaust just between the firewall and the engine. This happens for about an hour after the car is shut off; its getting cold here in Germany and haven't been running the A/C so that is not the issue.
Golf IV / Jetta IV :: 1.8t - Oil Leak / Drip Coming From Drain Bolt
So i noticed i am leaking oil, not much but enought that i will have to top it up before the next oil change. The drip comes from the drain bolt, and drips off the bottom of the oil pan right under it. I have replaced the bolt and it still continues to leak. What could be the cause of this?

View 3 RepliesAccord :: 2000 - Where Coolant Drain Plug Of Engine Located
Where the engine coolant drain plug is located? The picture in the owner's manual is not very clear. I crawled under and found a bolt head with a washer under it located about six inches to the driver side of the oil filter. It's right next to the VIN number plate.
I expected to find it at the bottom of the engine but this bolt head is higher up, about even with the lower edge of the oil filter. Is this the coolant drain plug?
Prius (Gen 2) :: Red Fluid Dripping Under The Car - Hybrid Drive Coolant Leak
Or at least, I assume it's the Hybrid Drive. The service campaign to replace the inverter pump was completed on Friday. The Coolant Control Valve was replaced today (I TOLD THEM to have that part for the service on Friday, but I digress). I'm now seeing red fluid dripping under the car. It appears something wasn't tightened down correctly.
Given that it appears to be a slow leak, and I need to get the car back to the dealer to fix it (40 mile trip), should I make them tow it back at their expense, or is it safe to drive it that far? I have NO replacement fluid to add in the meantime, and if I recall correctly, that's a dealer only part.
Ford - Explorer :: 2001 - Coolant Leak / Dripping Off The Rear Of Oil Pan
I've got a 2001 Explorer 4.0L with around 160,000 miles on it. Just noticed this morning it has developed a coolant leak. It's dripping off the rear of the oil pan and appears to be coming from the passenger side somewhere above the oil filter. Without tearing a bunch of stuff apart, I can't really see for sure where its coming from. Are there any common issues with this? I'm hoping its not a head gasket...

So went to move my truck after getting 30 inches of snow last night, noticed yellow underneath my truck, backed up the truck and then noticed it was also dripping down off of the back of the muffler???? Moved my truck about 25 feet away and let it idol for 20 minutes as a plow moved the snow, kept checking but no more leak? Just checked again, and there is plain old water dripping from under the truck where the snow is melting but still no more yellow. Can coolant leak and rundown down the length of the exhaust and then collect and drip? 04 f150 fx4 5.4

I have coolant leaking from under my degas bottle. There was a spot on the driveway this morning and upon investigation, I saw a drip hanging from the bottom of the degas. No liquid on top at all. Where this is coming from? Bottom hose?
Also, the boot that connects the tube (right side while looking at front of truck) to the elbow that goes into the intake is leaking oil and making a mess. Whats the best way to fix? Remove boot, clean up, and put back on? Or replace boot? If replace, where can I get that boot?
Golf IV / Jetta IV :: Coolant Leak From Behind Thermostat Cover So Soon?
02 Jetta 2.0L that I changed the thermostat. o-ring, and cover on when I first got the car about a year and a half ago.
I see dry g12 coming out from behind the cover and my coolant bulb had dipped quite a bit in recent weeks requiring a refill. What is most likely the problem here in such a short period of time? I've only put like 10k miles on the car in that period. O-ring couldn't have seated wrong because wouldn't the problem have been apparent immediately back when I did the job? Maybe I need to re-torque the cover? Cracked cover?
Golf IV / Jetta IV :: Coolant Leak - Blown Motor?
My car has been leaking coolant as soon as you put it in from it looks like the transmission area. Today I filled the car with water and drove it on the interstate to work. The car started getting jerky like it was losing power. So I pulled over and when I did the car shut off. There was excessive smoke under the hood and after removing the oil cap, smoke coming from there also. Tried restarting and it sounds like it just spins. No start. Looked at the timing belt, it's still intact. Put a wrench on the crank pulley and it's turning. What's wrong? Is it a goner?

I noticed today when I was in a drive thru that ,y Jetta was smoking a little.... Went home ate my food and came out and looked underneath the Jetta and found a substantial coolant leak..... My heater core is bad I know this already... Would this cause coolant to leak outside the car or the carpet only??? I jacked up the car and checked for leaks... There is coolant all over the rear engine mount... And the driver side corner of the engine is pretty soaked in coolant....I can't pin point the leak..... There is a connection coming out of the side of the head that's got a little pinky crusty stuff on it but I can't see anywhere around it...
