    Thank you for this video. I have the same car, tried to use the auxiliary heater a couple times and it didn't start. Now it says I need to add coolant. Never had this before.. I'm guessing the auxiliary heater is leaking somewhere since it circulates the coolant to heat it up. Although I heard you say "it's normal for the engine to burn some coolant". I thought this was a closed system and "burning" coolant could only result from a leak somewhere? I have a 2013 and never had to add coolant.

    Thank you so much for your comment. If you have a 7speed transmission you should have a service tube that you can use to add oil if needed. If you have a 9speed there is no service or dipstick. You definitely need to change your transmission fluid. You have to change the bottom tray. Check out my transmission service video.

  • @josecitomarin

    8 ай бұрын

    Hi. Thank you so much for your comment. If you want to remove the throttle valve you have to remove charge air cooler with the valve then separate them once they are out. Not that easy or quick, but definitely doable. Before you do that, there are some coolant and vacuum lines involved, at least 8 of them. You also have to remove the low temperature coolant reservoir.
