Just to give a bit of an overview I have a water leak somewhere on my car which I cant locate. I have pressurized the system and looked for it and I cant locate it. Its not the head gasket and the only give away is the small smell every so often of coolant when you put your heater fans on. Usually when put on 1st thing.
Anyway. On a coupld of occasions now my blowers have been blowing cold air and I have to rev the engine or get the turbo to come in and then you can feel hot air. This happened today with the difference of the temperature gauge shot up to nearly 110C then straight back down to 90 and then you could feel the hot air. But drive off boost for a while and the air goes cold.
I cant think of anything except I do have to top the water up every couple of weeks and so if its not bleeding the air out then it may be causingt an air lock which is what I think is happening.
Arnt the audis slef bleeding?
Any advice most welcome?
