About a month ago, we developed a water leak which didn't seem too bad at the time. Jan 1, I go to take car to work and before leaving home, I top off antifreeze rez. Come home several hours later and it's down approx 1/2". Decide to leave car in garage and use truck for awhile. Kinda forgot about the car/leak,but last Fri I check it and the rez is EMPTY! Top off again and checked it again yesterday and rez is EMPTY again and motor hasn't been ran since Jan1. It is wet underneath the motor. Spoke w/ a independent shop and he said don't bother to get it fixed cuz you won't get your $$ back. VW won't pay to have fixed and neither will dealer. Dealer has provided us a loaner car until VW gets their act together. Have NO clue where the leak is. Don't know rate of loss. 88k miles. '13 Passat TDI
So my questions: What do you all suggest? Park car outside? Keep topping off/put pan under engine? Engine runs--at least it did when I parked it on the 2nd. Too cold to just add water even tho it's in garage.
