You have to use distilled water and not tap because of the minerals and other stuff that comes from the pipes. Not purified neither.

You mentioned about turning on the vehicle, to turn on the heater so you can flush the heater coil. Are you saying to actually turn on the engine, without any coolant?

It can be done but just for a couple of minutes. But not to eliminate the air in the system. (It is full of air at that moment)

In another video (in a Toyota) they turned it on with water in the system instead of coolant, to help mix it around and pick up any debris/sediment - maybe that’s what he did?

when you were flushing the heater core, did you run the car without any coolant in it? if so can running the car without any new coolant possibly damage the main water pump? i believe it is not good to run a water pump dry

When I do my cars (inc a 1.8tsi EA888), I dump the coolant and fill with water from the garden hose (soft water where I live so it's no problem) and use the car normally for a few days and turn the heater on occasionally. Repeat until the water runs clear and then do the coolant/demineralised water

The 2.0T is found optional in many VW models. It is also something you should expect to see a lot if you browse the dealer lots or look online. It wouldn't surprise me if it was used the most by Volkswagen and Audi (and other VW owned brands). This thing I am about to mention about coolant is not a Volkswagen only thing. Be careful what coolant you choose even if you took a chance with a universal coolant. If one coolant is not compatible with the stuff that is already in there you may get a gel like substance as a result that will plug up your cooling system and heater cores. It will be a very harsh and very expensive lesson to you that you should have just used the correct coolant. The correct coolant is not going to be at all expensive compared to the cost of repairing the damage done by using the wrong one!! You will wish you never heard of universal coolant!!

How many miles does that coolant have on it? I had a Passat with the 2.5 and had coolant that had a similar color. I removed the reservoir and cleaned that with some coffee maker descaling solution while it was off the vehicle and slowly but surely it dissolved all of that rust from inside it and left it like new. Do this off the vehicle to keep that stuff from getting in the system and causing a problem. I also ran deionized water through the vehicle cooling system until I see no more rust. Just drain out what water will come out and add the appropriate amount of coolant concentrate. It is tricky to figure how much to use so I forgot. I can search it fairly easily if I had to do this again. I would be concerned that the crud in the reservoir may be in the heater core and transmission cooler too but are just not quite bad enough to cause a major problem.

@@barbertbonehey yeah, the clamp can be a bit of a bitch to get off. Use long, thin nose pliers. And once it drains and you’ve filled it back up and are driving around for the next month, expect to keep topping it off with the entire 1 gallon coolant bottle, and when that runs out, keep a separate container of distilled water and continue to top off. I thought I had a leak but it’s just self- burping the air bubbles.

Does this also apply to a CC 2.0? How dangerous is this to do/is it worth doing? I bought a 2009 VW CC 2.0 that was generally well-maintained except for some reason they were putting in the yellow/green universal coolant from O’Reillys instead of the pink/purple VW spec. everything is running fine, but I want to try and get at least 50,000 more miles out of it. All I know is I could never properly bleed my BMW once I started having cooling problems with it and it was a never-ending nightmare for years until I finally sold it to the junkyard so I’d like to avoid opening pandora’s box, but I don’t wanna wear it down early. Mine is clean just the wrong stuff.

Also, the local VW dealership in Pensacola Florida says they refuse to risk doing a coolant flush “older car” I guess 2009 is older?

Not dangerous if done correctly, I would change it back to the correct colored coolant, you know how sensitive German engineering is sometimes
