The problem with the radiator and cooling system of VAG group cars.

Model: (Various brands) Various
Part: Air conditioner

In this video, we can see how to solve a problem that affects many cars from the VAG group, such as the Audi A3 or Q2, or the Volkswagen Golf, whose cooling and/or heating system easily becomes clogged, also due to the many check valves that are present in its system (for example, in the golf shown in the video, there are seven of them). If these valves are clogged, they even prevent the normal purging of the system, so they must be checked one by one. If they are no longer efficient, they must be replaced along with their piping. After that, the system can be purged and start working properly again.
