Coolant colouring means just a slight leak will leave a noticeable witness mark. Good of the dealer not to ignore it, but they maybe welcomed the warranty work!

Brought a smile to my face this  :smiley: as I done the exact same thing when I picked my car up from the dealers the other day. Beautiful day and fully opened the sunroof and then drove off. Turned a corner and the sun highlighted my dirty windscreen so hit the screen wash, forgetting the sunroof was open, and got myself good and proper resulting in a few good stains to remove on my white work shirt! LOL.

Took mine to VW to have a look at my squeaky suspension, it's booked back in on Thursday for new rear shocks and front suspension arms.
