Red/pinky fluid under car
« on: September 24, 2011, 06:56:42 pm »
Hello,  just got my car back from vw yesterday after getting the wings done for rust warranty.  Had a recal to be sorted aswell so they replaced the ignition coils.  Parked my car in the drive today and spotted a wet patch.  Put a white container underneither and its a red/pink liquid.  Is from the passanger side its appearing.  Any ideas what this is?

Thanks
Kevin

Isn't the coolant pink?

The GTI isn't just a machine. It's very much a living, breathing thing.

Just put a dropper in the collant and got some out.  Its coolant when I put them together.  Going to put it over the put tommrow, hopefully just a loose pipe or something.  Engine tray looks a bit battered tho need to order one of them
