Losing antifreeze

Post by todd »

Gentlemen I need your help once again my 1994 jetta td is losing antifreeze but it is not leaking out of anywhere, it does not look like it is getting into my oil. I had a freind tell me he thinks its the tubro. Have any of you seen this problem? Thanks for you help....again.

Wrong forum, you have an idi engine, go to the other idi side and you will probably get some more help. I can tell you this though, your turbo has no relationship to your anti freeze. The turbo is cooled via the engine oil, so the only way you can lose anti freeze is via a lose connection, head gasket, or the heater core. Any white smoke after the car has warmed up a bit?
Again, bring the question over, you will have more luck there.
