Your 2002 Passat's coolant looks like a milkshake It was recently changed out what gives?

AnswerI would suspect oil or transmission fluid is mixing with the coolant. Have this looked at by a professional immediately and do not run this engine until you do. In a 2003 Passat, the coolant is G12 which is supposed to be a permanent anti freeze.i.e. there is no scheduled change for the fluid. It is pink, and there is a purple brand too that can be mixed. If some other type i.e. G11 or a glycol anti freeze, is added, the fluid could look brown according to the manual.It is possible someone mixed the two if it was changed recently.If you hadn't mentioned that the fluid was changed recently, I would have left the answer above as the only answer.Dale


Why wont1996 Astro Van CSFI engine start when cold?

Sounds like the coolant temperature sending unit (CTS sensor) It detects the current temperature of the radiator fluid and determines whether it should choke the throttle body or not. It usually screws into the intake near the thermostate housing. Trace the top radiator hose to the intake / thermostate housing location and you will see it. Usually has 2 wires going to it.
