Coolant Level, Checking And Adding Coolant Additive
WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2018 Volkswagen Jetta, 2017 Volkswagen Jetta, 2016 Volkswagen Jetta, and 2015 Volkswagen Jetta. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
CAUTION:
Use only distilled water for mixing coolant additives. By using distilled water the optimum corrosion protection can be reached.
-- Check the coolant level in the reservoir when the engine is cold.
- Pre-delivery inspection: coolant level to the mark -1-.
- At the pre-delivery inspection a coolant level above the mark -1- is permitted.
- Extracting the increased coolant level is not necessary because the coolant level can be lowered on new vehicles through the venting process.
- Inspection service: coolant level above "min marking" -2-.
-- If coolant level is too low, add the missing amount according to the mixture ratio.
NOTE:
Determine cause of fluid loss, which cannot be attributed to normal use and repair (repair procedure).
