Engine Coolant 1.9Tdi

Featured Replies

Hi,

Just checked my Engine coolant level and it has dropped beneath the 'min' level. So I'm going to pick some up from my local Skoda Dealer on the way Home, does this have to be diluted in any way or just as it is? I've got my manual at Home so I can't check before hand!

Thanks.

Depends if it's pre-mixed or neat, they usually sell G12 neat, so 50/50 with water.

Thanks for the info, i'm guessing thats distilled water or is Tap water OK?

With the amount you need, I would just put it in neat :)

Good point actually as tap water can scale up if it's from a hard water area. As said above, neat will do for the amount you need.

Tip for everyone, save your fridge freezer water when you defrost it. Handy for coolant top up, and in emergency even a battery.

Thanks for all the replys, picked 1.5l bottle for £8.50 from Farmers Skoda. He said 50/50 mix with tap water, would be fine.

Ta!

Another tip: If you use a dehumidifier, save that water too, it's much better than using tap water..
