ER-3682 Twincharged November 21, 2012 Author Share November 21, 2012 Now then you tell us got warning message on the screen? wtf. This is standard on VW cars,luckily got these warning message for oil & coolant,or else 'run' until dry even before the 1st service[take note alot of drivers never check oil & coolant],according to VW,damages cause by no oil or coolant are NOT covered by the warranty.!

Busybody 1st Gear November 21, 2012 Share November 21, 2012 You again? You can take yr kelisa and shove it up where the sun don't shine la. People asking abt car problem and you talk abt yr bloody kelisa. It's a piece of scrap metal. it may be scrap metal to you, but it gets me around reliably & cheaply and u can drop the too-eager-to-impress english, i find yr replies just that tad irritating to read Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Busybody 1st Gear November 21, 2012 Share November 21, 2012 Bullet proof no use. In Singapore must be langga proof. Your car can withstand a collision like a continental? Don't laugh at people's car who have some minor problem. u mean u didn't enjoy Jerrcik's comment about VW gimmicks? I was laughing at that, not the VW and yes, I agree kelisa isn't the safest car around, but the discussion was about reliability, and mine is Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was laughing at that, not the VW and yes, I agree kelisa isn't the safest car around, but the discussion was about reliability, and mine is do you know how to read the title? this thread is about a problem regarding the vw sharan and perhaps about the vw force induction models. since when it became a reliability thread? so you admit that you came in here to flaunt about your kelisa? what? that sounds really weird. flaunt about kelisa? that sounded like an oxymoron.

Newkid 2nd Gear November 22, 2012 Share November 22, 2012 I do not think VW cars drink that much coolant based on asking around during meetups. My VW 2.0T has clocked 25000km in 15 months and only had to top up coolant once, because I saw the level going below the MIN line and not because of the warning light. In fact, I still got a lot of VW coolant left over after that 1 time topup. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Luckcent 4th Gear November 23, 2012 Share November 23, 2012 If needs to constantly top up engine oil or coolant, then it is the car regardless of the make. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tohdj Neutral Newbie November 23, 2012 Share November 23, 2012 as far as i remember, coolant levels may drop due to evaporation and minor leaks, but 1.2l is not a small amount. ask the workshop to do a pressure leak test where they attach an air pump + gauge to your radiator cap's inlet. when they pump the air in, and the pressure will drop over a short period of time lilke 5 mins, then it means that you've a leak somewhere in the system.

Grubby Neutral Newbie February 14, 2014 Share February 14, 2014 Mine is new Sharan delivered from VW in Sep 13. Less than 5 months and this what happen today...... The sliding doors on both side were opened. All the windows wound down including the sun roof. All this happened in a public car park, after I parked my car, for work. Send the car to VW and after the diagnostic, I was informed that there is an intermittent impulse signal fault. My milage is less 10k km and the coolant had started to flash at the same time today Had any VW owners experienced any similar issues before? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
