Problem Water

[Rovico]

Hello, I have a small problem with the Twingo 133.

when I connect the car's heating, steam or smoke out of coolant for the air vents on the dashboard.

low coolant level slowly.

I do not see any loss of water hose.

may be the heating radiator?


Thanks !

hi, the end was the heating radiator, which is drilled in 3 places.

Half a car must be removed to make room and out through the feet.

I leave you two photos.

The radiator is VALEO brand and cost me 112€

Hmm I keep resisting asking Steve at edge to do any of this cos I know I'll spend a fortune and get the whole interior redone!

That's the heating matrix it has coolent run through from the engin to warm up the interior quicker.

Can you tell which particular part of the heater assembly and why it failed. Being reasonably well protected from damage by the dashboard and console surrounds, there shouldn't be any physical damage to make it fail.

Have you been using the correct coolant, which should limit corrosion inside the coolant system?

coolant is standard, always perfect.
I think it could be a manufacturing defect ....
