Cooling System
When doing any repair work, especially in the engine compartment, pay attention to the following due to clearance issues:
• Route all lines and wires in their original locations.
• Make sure there is enough clearance to moving or hot components to prevent damage to the lines.
• When the engine is warm the cooling system is under pressure. If necessary release the pressure before beginning the repair work.
• Secure all hose connections with hose clamps, allocation, refer to the parts catalog.
• The hose clip pliers (V.A.G 1921) or hose clip pliers (VAS 6362) are recommended for installing spring clamps.
• Always replace gaskets and seals.
• Arrows on coolant pipes and coolant hoses must line up across from each other.
