Hi guys, i own Audi A3 2.0 TDI (made on end of the 2004), and i have problems witch coolant liquid.

Every 2 weeks i need to refill coolant reservoir because level of coolant is below minimum gauge, and because i get warning message on car computer. Temperature indicator never goes over 90 degrees.

I drive car really hard, i like to accelerate and drive fast (i don't know if this has anything to do with coolant problem, but it doesn't hurt if i let you know that).

Has anyone had problems like i do, or can help me with some advice?

Thanks,
Goran

This could be anything from a loose hose clip to a cracked reservoir to a leaky pump. Have you looked under the car and under the hood to see if you can locate any leaks?

there are no visible leaks, but again, i'm not the expert, so i don't know how to recognize leaks.

I will take car to the car service, again ... Last time they said to me that this is nothing serious, and that this is common for my car ...

That's probably because you are still under warranty and they don't want to fix it. It is not NORMAL to lose coolant, especially not a liter every two weeks. Just go back to the dealership and get them to fix the problem. You need to have your cooling system pressure tested.

you definitely need to have this problem looked at before you run out of warranty... loss of coolant can lead to overheating, which can cause bigger problems...

you most likely have a slow leak somewhere, that needs some attention before it gets worse...
