Cooling system, servicing

WARNING: When doing any repair work, especially in the engine compartment, pay attention to the following due to the cramped conditions:
^ Route all the various lines (e.g. for fuel, hydraulics, EVAP system, coolant, refrigerant, brake fluid and vacuum lines and hoses) and electrical wiring so that the original positions are restored.
^ Ensure sufficient clearance to all moving or hot components.

Note:
^ When the engine is warm the cooling system is under pressure. If necessary release pressure before commencing repair work.
^ Hoses are secured with spring-type clips. In cases of repair only use spring-type clips.





^ VAS 5024 pliers are recommended when installing spring-type clips.
^ When installing coolant hoses route stress-free so that they do not come into contact with other components (observe markings on coolant connection and hose).
