Hello all, my brother has been trying to head to Mexico from Canada in his 97 Jetta TD. He has been overheating chronically. In Washington he got a new rad and made it to LV and overheated. New coolant fan, no luck. New thermostat before he left. They have done the sniff test for exhaust in the coolant looking for a blown head gasket twice and no positive. I am running out of suggestion! He is not mechanically inclined. Anyone there willing to help with some knowledge of these cars? He will try Wolf Auto when they open on Monday but any other suggestions appreciated! You can text him (no LD plan on his cell) at 1250 814 9999. Thanks!
