Hi
I have an audi a2 1.6 FSI 2003. I have a problem with losing water. Over the past couple of days I have had to top the water up(about 500ml) each time. I can not se an obvious leak. The water disappears
, and I top it up. Did this twice. The second time, I stopped at the side of the road as the water warning light had come on. When I looked the expansion tank was empty. Then as I slowly undid the cap, the water came back. Not clever enough to know what it happening. I've now parked the car up and not used it. I don't want to damage it. I've had a quick look on the we, and lots it could be from the Thermostat, to the head gasket, to the head being warped. If it is as simple as the thermostat I'm happy to do it, but not sure how to diagnose. Is it time to say goodbye to my beloved A2?
Thank you in anticipation
