i can refill the coolant at least 2-3 times a week

i've been having problems with it for the last 2 years! started using coolant, no sign of it leaking but was pressurizing the tank even after driving a very short distance77 took it for a sniff test, but nothing showed up, so took the option to change the head gasket, then it ran ok, no sign of cool...

Radweld? I've done a recent coolant flush! And never seen concealed coolant before

HI, got a b5 1.9 tdi AFN, just noticed it's blown an hole in the pipe near the egr valve from the intercooler, and even blown an hole through the bonnet lining!! anyone know what can cause this? my car is suffering from coolant loss somewhere, changed the head gasket over a year ago because i though...

i checked the timing today, i checked the tdc on the crank, and both seem to be okay with the camshaft notch horizontal and 1st lobes pointing upwards and that was for both notches on the flywheel, which i thought was odd but must only be 1 or 2 teeth between. is this correct? trouble is it won't st...

right so i got it started today, but by god did it sound rough lol sort of a grinding noise, i checked the timing, and it still looks spot on, i rotated it by hand and it felt fine, the compression stroke is obviously the hardest to turn on anyway? even when it wasn't starting because of the fuel si...

so how do you bleed the 1.9tdi engine?

i have just changed the head gasket on my AFN engined passat, now it won't start, i locked the diesel pump pulley, and the cam on removal,

does the diesel lines need priming after having them disconnected from the injectors? or is it simply checking the tdc marks again?

can anyone here help please?

i managed to remove it with the little space i had.

update: Car now using more water, i checked the water pump today by removing it, no sign of damage. I tried removing the small pipe when it got to 90c and it spurts water out in a rhythm like to the compression stroke, it seems to slow down at 2000rpm when i would of thought it would get faster and ...

yes auxiliary belt driven, so does that mean service position still? or is they enough room?

vw passat 1999, 1.9tdi AFN.

what is needed to be removed to get access to the water pump? is service position needed?

anyone please answer the above?

so not just up to temperature 90° but when the fan comes on?

to be honest i have never heard the fan come on, and it never goes above 90° so can the water pump be knackered if it never overheats?

it's a 1999 1.9 tdi AFN,

yes the small pipe that goes to the top of the expansion tank, but on mine, it's a short pipe that joins to the top radiator hose.

so to illiterate on the above, is it normal for it to come up when the pipe is under the level of the tank continuously or only when revved? and at the same height?

Hi Karl, well it spurts out all the time if i put the pipe lower than the tank and that's without revving it, but i suppose it would?

pipe 23 on your diagram is different to mine, mine joins to a bigger pipe underneath it

no steam, and no mayonnaise under the oil cap.

can anyone please help?

Hi, it's been a while since i posted on this thread and my water issue still isn't sorted, i am using more coolant now on a regular basis, i'm topping it up at least once a week now, i pulled that small pipe off again, if i put it under the level of the tank, it constantly has coolant coming out, bu...
