    W204 C250 Coolant leak...

    Yes , it is DIY , I did mine OK. You do not need any special tools , just a decent quarter inch socket set as access is tight. You MUST get the 3 hole housing. (there are 2 hole ones out there and even a new one will soon leak) I think it took me about 3 hours as the EGR cooler has to come off...

    1st and 2nd Gear sticking in 2001 Golf MK4 1.4 Petrol

    I had a similar problem on a 95 Golf , replacing the clutch fixed it. First check the fluid and master and slave cylinders for leaks. Replacing the clutch on a Golf is fairly straight forward.

Also this gaskit can slip as you fit it. The black chequred plastic under the housing is the inlet manifold. This is the root...

    C220 w204 Coolant leak < Newbie help.

    You need a new fuel filter housing , the housing has a coolant pipe built in , the flange of which bolts to the cylinder head.
