Wondering if someone could help me out with a part number for the engine coolant sensor located underneath the intake manifold, replaced intake manifold and now have coolant flooding out of the sensor

I’ve been having problems with my van losing coolant for the last year and I’ve popped up on numerous threads when other people have reported issues, so time to start my own thread. My van has got 120k miles on the clock, I had the EGR swapped earlier this year and the leak got better but...

Hello guys, I own a VW T6 2017 2.0 TDI (150 HP). Long story short - coolant was leaking, head gasket, EGR fixed but it's still looses coolant. I found out that the intercooler coolant hoses are at best - slightly warm if not cold even though the engine is hot. Is it normal or we are looking at...

Hi All, I have a weird one that many of you many be able to help with if you have a moment. Is it normal for the coolant system on a 204ps BiTDi to be under pressure when cold? If anyone has one, that is cold, and could spare me 2 minutes of your time, could you please take the coolant cap...

Hi, My 2019 150ps caravelle has sprung a leak. It looks to be coolant that's running to a heater at the rear. I have an extended warranty that's valid upto November this year. I'm guessing from reading other posts this won't be covered since it's classed as perishable. Has anyone else had a...

Hi all I recently bought a 2016 61k miles T6 campervan (ad blue). Private sell. Runs well but the coolant light came on after a couple of weeks. Topped up and found the level had dropped again after a couple more weeks. I think I lost about 200ml over 250 miles. Then again I added a similar...

Hi Guys, New to the forum as a contributor but have found the threads immensely useful over the years, finally time to get involved! We have a 2018 204 DSG 4Motion Kombi in our workshop at the moment that is losing coolant. I've read a few threads on T6s with this issue and once a physical...

I know this was covered in many posts but I couldn't find one with symptoms that I'm experiencing. No butter on oil filler cap or oil dip stick. Warms up as usual and keeps 90 degrees temperature. Oil level OK. From my observations it looks like I'm loosing coolant mainly on short trips 15-30...

@mmi : I understand you are a bit of an Oracle when it comes to this subject. Any advice? @Niknak : I've seen you post previously about a link between coolant leaks and NOx sensors failing. Can you please share a bit more info of what the link is? Anyone else have some good advice? I've just...

I’ve got a 2017 T6 2l on 123k miles. Recently been into garage to have glow plugs and injector changed. Since I’ve had van back I’ve noticed the coolant level is going down in coolant bottle. I had no issue with level dropping previously. No obvious leaks. Will contact garage, but would they...

My t6 204 is slowly losing coolant (separate thread). One of the symptoms is that about half a dozen times the starter motor has struggled to turn the engine over. It turns over for a bit then freezes as if there isn’t enough power to turn the engine over. But battery and starter are strong...

I had a low coolant warning the other day, and the header tank was almost empty. There was no obvious signs of a leak, so I topped it up and checked the level over the next few drives (only short thankfully). As the level continued to drop, I’ve just taken the under tray off, to discover a small...
