Where is the radiator to put fluid for 2001 jetta?
Red, five year, hoat type.
you have to put the radiator fluid in the overflow. This is the only way.
When a car is hot, keep the car running and add water to the radiator. When a car is cold, you can simply put the water into the radiator.
yes, i had a 2000 wolfsburg and put on 03 jettas
you can not put it directly into the radiator you have to fill the overflow bottle located near the firewall on the drivers side of the car The Jetta does have a round "plastic bottle" tank in the engine compartment that holds the systems water. This tank has a Max and Min mark. Only use the coolant (water and atifreez mixture) reccomended by manufature as norlmal water will eventualy cause rusting in the system.
What I do is put half antifreeze and half water in to the radiator and keep putting more radiator fluid tell you see it in the neck of the radiator and put some radiator fluid in the coolant reservoir tank too.
put radiator sealer in it or crack an egg in it
Pour the coolant in the radiator.
the trans fluid on a auto trans goes through a tube in the radiator to cool the fluid if the tube has holes in it, it will leak trans fluid in to radiator. you need to replace radiator or have rebuilt.or you could put on a aux trans cooler and put plugs where the trans lines used to go.
OEM fluid is Pentosin Vw Automatic Transmission Fluid ATF1 and that is what I recommend you use.

DO NOT put oil in the radiator : The engine cooling system for the 2001 Lincoln LS came from the factory with a 50 / 50 mix of distilled water and GREEN color antifreeze ( meeting Ford specification ESE-M97B44-A ) * also , the hydraulic engine cooling fan fluid reservoir takes MERCON automatic transmission fluid
