Come on lads, is there not one person who can tell me what I will find when removing the intake :shock:

There is something on that top end that can seriously throw all my water out.

Ps the pipe to the heater matrix seems fine.

:( :( :( :( :( :( :(

By the look of it I need to remove the inlet manifold to see where it is coming from. Unforunately the baby relies on me and I wont be looking tonight. Anyone have a picture of what is under the inlet manifold?

Thanks for the help.

The water is coming out a lot higher than the housing. If you look at the engine the water is coming out at about the same level as the fuel rail. It is seeping out onto the inlet manifold as well.

The car itself is running fine and no problem with the oil being contaminated etc.

I was driving my vr6 today when I spotted the water temp light flashing. Stopped the car and steam was coming from everywhere. After investigation coolant was everywhere under the bonnet.

On tickover nothing comes out, if I rev it a couple of times coolant pisses out of the top RHS of the engine, it seems to be coming out under the VR6 DOHC cover, then pouring over the 3 connections hid under the plastic cover (I think these are connected to the water pump?)

It takes about 4 mins to empty the tank.

Please help, what is at the top of the engine that can cause this?

I have got hold of a optical interface and managed to download some full versions (Unlocked) of various software tools.

Is this interface the best for the VR6, what is the differance with the new 'digital' ones?

Have you any experiance of VAG-COM compared to VWTOOL and SCANTOOL.

Thanks

Saw a nice black one on Sunday as I was approaching Nottingham. Then yesterday a dark green one on the Lincoln Bypass.
