Do I add the coolant to my 2003 beetle right into the clean circular bulb under the hood

Question

Dont laugh Im trying to save money and do this myself. I know I can only use Red. I know you check the level by looking at this ball do you fill the ball to the top or half way

Answer 1

you have your min and max mark clearly on the side dont you.

when we have cars come in for services we always make sure the coolent is on the line of max. your sure to have enough coolent then to last a while before it needs topping up again

hope it helps

Answer 2

Yup, add your coolant to the globe-looking coolant resevoir, halfway full will do it. You can shake the car side-to-side a bit to see the level in the resevoir a bit better.

Answer 3

WHY don't you take it to the dealer and ask the service manager or read your manual.   Ball???   They will show you.  The service manager has nothing better to do and he is an ex mechanic.
