Note. If large quantities of metal shavings or abraded material are found in the engine oil while servicing the engine, the oil passages, lines and hoses must be carefully cleaned to prevent resulting damage and the oil cooler must be replaced. The oil level must not exceed the max. marking or the catalytic converter could be damaged. Oil quantities, oil specifications and viscosity classes --> Maintenance tables.

Cooling System, Draining and Filling

Special tools, testers and auxiliary items required

  1. Adapter V.A.G 1274/8
  2. Drip tray for workshop crane VAS 6208
  3. Hose clamp pliers V.A.G 1921
  4. Cooling system charge unit VAS 6096
  1. Refractometer T10007

Draining

Note. Drained coolant must be stored in a clean container for disposal or reuse.

  1. Remove cover above coolant reservoir - arrows -.
CAUTIONCover cap of coolant expansion tank with rag and open carefully, as hot steam or hot coolant may escape when opening.
  1. Open cap of coolant expansion tank.
  1. For vehicles with auxiliary heater, remove bolts - arrows - for exhaust pipe of parking heater/auxiliary heater on noise insulation.
  1. Loosen quick-release fasteners - 1 - and remove front noise insulation.
  1. Place drip tray for workshop crane VAS 6208 under engine.
  2. Remove drain plug - arrow - at coolant thermostat housing and drain coolant.
  1. Remove drain plug - arrow - at front coolant pipe and drain coolant.
  1. Remove lower coolant hose - 2 - from right auxiliary cooler and drain remaining coolant.

Note. Ignore - 1 -.

Filling

  1. Ignition switched off.
CAUTIONRefilling the cooling system must be performed exclusively using the cooling system charge unit VAS 6096. Otherwise, automatic transmission malfunctions could occur.

Note. The cooling system is filled all year round with a mixture of frost and corrosion protection additives and water. Use only coolant additive Plus G 012 A8F A1 (short: G12+) "according to TL VW 774 F". Other coolant additives may above all reduce the corrosion protection effect significantly. The damage resulting from this may lead to loss of coolant and consequently to severe engine damage. G12+ and coolant additives with the designation "according to TL VW 774 F" reduce frost and corrosion damage as well as lime deposits. They also raise the boiling point. For this reason the system must be filled all year round with frost and corrosion protection additives. Because of its high boiling point, the coolant improves engine reliability under heavy loads, particularly in countries with tropical climates. Freeze protection must be guaranteed down to -25 C (in extremely cold countries to about -35 C). The coolant concentration must not be reduced by adding water even in warmer seasons and in warmer countries. The coolant additive portion must be at least 40%. If for climatic reasons greater frost protection is required, the amount of G12+ can be increased, but only up to 60% (frost protection to about -40 C), otherwise frost protection and cooling effectiveness will be reduced. Only clean drinking water may be used for mixing coolant. If the radiator, heater core, cylinder head and cylinder head gasket or cylinder block is replaced, completely replace the engine coolant. Dirty coolant must not be re-used. For coolant G12+ , use refractometer T10007 to test frost protection in cooling system.

  1. Reinstall drain plug - arrow - with new O-ring at coolant thermostat housing.
  1. Reinstall drain plug - arrow - with new gasket at front coolant pipe.
  1. Install lower coolant hose - 2 - on right auxiliary cooler - arrow -.

Scheme 27

Scheme 27
  1. Fill coolant reservoir of Cooling System Charge Unit VAS 6096 with at least 15 liters of pre-mixed coolant with correct mixture ratio
  1. G12+ (60%) and water (40%) for freeze protection down to -25 C
  2. G12+ (50%) and water (50%) for freeze protection up to -35 C
  3. G12+ (60%) and water (40%) for freeze protection down to -40 C
  1. Attach adapter V.A.G 1274/8 to coolant expansion tank.
  2. Install Cooling System Charge Unit VAS 6096 on adapter V.A.G 1274/8.
  3. Place air outlet hose - 1 - into a small container - 2 -. (A small amount of coolant is drawn off which should be reserved with the discharged air.)
  4. Close both valves - A - and - B - by turning lever perpendicular to direction of flow.
  1. Connect hose - 3 - to pressurized air.
  1. Pressure: 6 to 10 bar pressure.

Scheme 28

Scheme 28
  1. Open valve - B - , turn lever in direction of flow to do this.

A vacuum is created in the cooling system by the suction jet pump.

  1. Needle on the instrument display must travel into the green region.
  1. Also briefly open valve - A - by turning lever in direction of flow so that Cooling System Charge Unit VAS 6096 coolant reservoir hose is filled with coolant.
  2. Close valve - A - again.
  3. Let valve - B - remain open another 2 minutes.
  1. A further vacuum is created in the cooling system by the suction jet pump.
  2. Needle on the instrument display must still remain in the green region.
  1. Close valve - B -.
  1. Needle in display must remain in green region, then vacuum in cooling system is sufficient for subsequent filling.

If needle stands below the green region, repeat procedure.

If the vacuum decreases, cooling system is leaking.

  1. Disconnect pressurized air hose.
  2. Open valve - A -.

The vacuum in the cooling system has the effect of extracting coolant from replacement reservoir; cooling system is filled.

  1. Detach Cooling System Charge Unit VAS 6096 from adapter V.A.G 1274/8 on coolant expansion tank.
  1. Remove rubber seal - 1 - and remove plenum chamber cover - 2 -.

Note. Ignore - 3 -.

Scheme 29

  1. Open bleeder screws - arrows -.
  2. Fill up coolant until it escapes from the bleeder holes in the coolant hoses.
  3. Close bleeder screws.
  4. Twist expansion tank cap closed.
  1. Make sure that the auxiliary heater is switched off.
  2. Start engine.
  3. Set heating air conditioning system to "HI" on both sides.
  4. Let engine run at 2000 RPM for 3 minutes.
  1. Let engine run at idle long enough until both large coolant hoses on main cooler are warm.
  2. Let engine run at 2000 RPM for 1 minute.
  3. Turn off engine and allow it to cool off.

Scheme 30

  1. Check coolant level.
  1. With cold engine, coolant level must be at MAX marking.
  2. Coolant level may be above MAX marking with engine at operating temperature.
