Coolant Leak

[Sharpe]

Driving along today and a flashing red coolant light came on with message on the MFD. Drove on a coupLe of miles until I could stop and checked the reservoir, was down way below the minimum marker nearly to the bottom of the reservoir where it meets the tube. Topped up with a bit of water I had in the van, then once I got home filled it up to the max marker.
Went to check on it after an hour and most of it was on the floor! Anyone had this happen before? Going to get it into VW on Monday (luckily only 5 minute walk from where I work)
Van is a 2018 TSI 150 with 14k on the clock

I can see it dripping from (1) onto (2)

you would have to look furthure up the engine to find the leak . . . .,

keep us posted with the report from VW regarding the leak.

So van went in yesterday, diagnosed as leaking coolant pump and thermostat. Replaced under warranty, would have been circa £700 including 4 hours labour if outside warranty. Let’s hope any other big jobs happen in the next 15 months
