Volkswagen Golf - Video tutorial

Model: Volkswagen Golf MK 7, Golf 7, Golf VII - Years 2012-2019
Part: Antifreeze liquid
Operation: Check and top up the coolant in the Volkswagen Golf 7

We have to leave, get in the car and start the engine; here the error light appears with the message to check the coolant. Let's not panic, turn off the engine and pull the lever to open the bonnet. We get out of the car and open the hood; we identify the expansion tank and check the level of the liquid inside it. The engine must be cold, otherwise the liquid that has expanded with the heat will distort the control. Furthermore, when the engine is hot, the system is under pressure and opening the cap runs the risk of it coming out with the danger of burns. Therefore, when operating with a cold engine, if the level is lower than the word â € œminâ € then we must top up. It would be a good idea to keep a bottle of liquid ready for use in the car that you can add without further problems; in general, the type of liquid is shown in the use and maintenance booklet and for the Golf 7 it should be called â € œAntifreeze G13â €. In the absence of suitable liquid, for a small topping up we can also use distilled water which, although it does not have the characteristics of the liquid, is free of limescale.
