VR6 0 Posted November 30, 2003 Not exaclty a problem that needs solving, as such, so I'll put this into caring and repairing. :) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Jimbo 0 Posted December 8, 2003 Depends if you want a VAG one, I had mine done on my Storm a couple of years ago and I seem to recall it was around the £200 mark! The good thing is I managed to get it covered by the extended warranty!!!! :D The only problem you may find is that once one element of the cooling system is replaced then the rest of the system will be weak in comparison (having all aged and deteriorated at the same rate), therefore you may find you start blowing hoses left right and centre as the system constantly searches for weak points. :( Just to warn you!
