Guide to Replacing Antifreeze Coolant

Model: Subaru Impreza MK 2 - Years 2001-2007
Part: Antifreeze coolant

To carry out this maintenance, ensure that the car's engine is cold. Remember, it is dangerous to open the coolant reservoir cap when the engine is hot.
Start by unscrewing the top cap, then place a container under the outlet hole and allow all the liquid to drain out.
At this point, add the additive; it is recommended to use the original Subaru specific one, and then add the antifreeze coolant in the correct amount, depending on the temperatures experienced in the area where you use the car. If particularly low temperatures are expected, a less diluted coolant should be used to ensure antifreeze functionality.

How to Reset the Central Locking of the Volkswagen Golf 4?

If the central locking system of the Volkswagen Golf 4 is not working, it is likely necessary to reset the system: to do this, open the driver's door and detach the side panel of the dashboard next to the steering wheel. Under this panel, you will find the fuses, including the one for the central locking, which is indicated in the manual as number 14. To reset the system, remove this fuse from its housing, then reinsert it or replace it with a new one of the same amperage: this will reset the central locking system.
