I'm getting this but under my coolant cap not oil cap

Don't use any water or oil

Not fluid mixes ????


What can this be ???

Cheers

If it's a white substance it could be a small amount of oil in the water which could be an oil cooler problem which is fairly easy to sort out Shall try get a pic and post up it's not a lot at all just very small amount There doesn't appear to be any oil in water or other way round either Cheers

Cheers mate

The passat has got nice lines and the bra seemed to ruin the look and sleek lines

But each to there own I say lol
