Water leak
« on: 05 July 2010, 09:13 »
Hi
I know a water leak could be from a lot of places, but what would be the most likely place on a 1999 1.8T GTi  with 130k .
Cheers in advance.

Check the black coolant housing at the side of the head/block (passenger side).  Mine leaked from this all down the side and all over the gearbox.  Think it may have been leaking for a while then went big time.  Just like this:
