Can anyone please explain why it has happened. Now the problem is the car has done a mere 500 kms roughly after the service and the coolant color has started to change again. I said ok and the work was done with an Invoice of 15k. Later he informed that there was a leakage in the coolant tank and it needed replacement and that might be the reason for the coolant level to go down. I was fine with it I said go ahead and also the annual service to be done.
I would start the car every week but the car never left the house.įinally, in the first month of June I took it to the showroom showed it to the advisor he told it is usual and it is time to change the coolant. Then came the lockdown and the car stayed in my house for almost 2 months. This happened in March just before the lockdown. Bought distilled water from the nearby shop and topped up the coolant prayed nothing would go wrong and thankfully returned without any issue. Turned off the engine and waited for 30 mins for the engine to cool down. I used the clutch to come down the slope and parked on the roadside. When returning, the coolant warning light came up while coming down the slope. Naturally, I drove in 1st gear through the climb revving the car. The following week I went to one of my relative's house. But due to some errands in the family, I could not take the car to the showroom. I also contacted the showroom and the technician told to come over and it might be time to change the coolant.
After this, I took the car to my nearest workshop and showed the mechanic but he was not sure about the issue and told it might be rust and it's time to change the coolant. I had opened my bonnet to refill water for the windshield when I noticed the color of the coolant tank had turned somewhat blackish (Not fully black but almost like mud getting stuck) opened the cap to check and the coolant had changed to something transparent with some sort of muddy colour particles stuck on its walls. This happened in last february before lockdown. I encountered an issue or better to say next issue in my Polo.
