Note
The exact value for the following checks may be read in the light-
dark limit. To better see the light-dark limit, use a dropper/pipette
to put a water drop on the glass. Now the light-dark limit may be
easily recognized by the “WATERLINE”.
– Check the concentration of antifreeze additive with the Re‐
fractometer for cooling system fluid analysis -EQ 7093 (VWB)
- ou - T 10007- (follow the instruction manual).
The scale -1- of the refractometer is related to coolant additives -
G 12- and -G 11-.
The scale -2- is related to the cooling additive -G 13-.
Note
♦
The antifreeze protection must be guaranteed in approximate‐
ly -13 ° F (in Arctic climate countries in approximately
-31.00 ?).
♦
Due to climatic reasons, a higher antifreeze protection is nec‐
essary, so the percentage of G 12 may be increased, but only
up to 60% (antifreeze protection to approximately - 40º F), be‐
cause the antifreeze protection can be reduced again and,
additionally, the cooling action is worsened.
– When the antifreeze protection is too weak, drain the differ‐
ence volume mentioned in the antifreeze protection table
and replace with the cooling additive -G 12- ac‐
cording to TL VW 774 F.

♦ Follow the rules for disposal!

12) Actual value: it is the result achieved when measuring the concentration of
coolant on the measured vehicle.
13) Nominal value: is the value applied to the locality where the vehicle is being
used. For example, in Brazil, the nominal value is -25° C; in arctic countries, the
value is -35° C.
14) Difference quantity in liters: is the amount removed from the cooling system
and replenished in the same quantity only with additive.
– After the test run, you must check the antifreeze additive con‐
centration in the cooling system again.

Check the coolant level and, if necessa‐
ry, replenish the cooling system
– Check the coolant level in the reservoir with the cold engine.
♦ Delivery inspection: With cold engine, the coolant level must
be in the middle area between the maximum and minimum
reservoir markings. If it is above the middle area, remove the
excess until it reaches the level in the middle area between
the maximum and minimum reservoir markings. With the heat‐
ed engine, the coolant may reach the maximum reservoir
marking.
♦ Inspection service: With cold engine, the coolant level can be
between the reservoir maximum marking and middle area. If
it is above the middle area, remove the excess until it reaches
the level in the middle area between the maximum and mini‐
mum reservoir markings. With the heated engine, the coolant
may reach the maximum reservoir marking.
– If during the inspection service the coolant level is below the
minimum level marking, it is necessary to replenish the system
according to the specified mixture ratio until the middle area
between the maximum and minimum reservoir markings.
Note
In case of loss of fluid not caused by consumption, you must de‐
termine and eliminate the cause (repair measure).

♦
The coolant additive -G12- prevents damage from corrosion
and freezing, limestone build-up and also increases the boiling
point. For these reasons, the cooling system must always be
replenished with antifreeze and anti-corrosion agent through‐
out the year.
♦
Specially in tropical countries, the coolant ensures the engine
operation by increasing the boiling point under high engine
charges.
♦
The concentration of coolant cannot be diluted in water, even
during hot seasons or in hot countries. The cooling additive
percentage must be at least 40%.

– Remove the crankcase air vent hose -1- from the air filter case.
– Remove the air filter case from the supports and the butterfly
valve command unit -arrows- and remove the air filter case.
Carry out work sequence as follows:
– Loosen the spark plug connectors -arrows- with the Assembly
tool -T10029- .
– Remove the spark plugs with the Spark plug wrench -3122B- .
– Install the new spark plugs with the Spark plug wrench -3122B-
and the Torque wrench - 5 to 50 Nm (enc. 1/2") -VAG 1331- .
Tightening torque: 30 Nm.
Note
♦
The air filter case assembly is initially carried out by fitting the
butterfly valve command unit nozzle, side supports, and then
the front supports.
♦
Apply neutral soap or coolant additive to the fastening bear‐
ings and to the butterfly valve control unit nozzle packing for
easier installation.
WARNING
♦ Follow the rules for disposal!
– Connect the spark plug connectors.
– Install the air filter case.
