2017 polo gt 1.4tsi coolant leak

Post by RlineNath »

Good afternoon,

My wife's gt has developed a coolant leak from the thermostat housing area- can they be resealed of will it require a new housing?

I don't want to strip it down to take a look and end up with the car bring stuck on the driveway.

Also if anyone could point me towards the replacement items I'd be grateful.

Many thanks

My 2014 blue gt sprang a leak from the water pump housing. Quick phonecall to local VW dealer and they emailed the drawings for me to identify the seals required. £10 later and I had the seals and about an hour on the drive and new seals were fitted. Easy peasy.
Dont forget coolant to top up after.
