Happened to me this past summer. Kept consuming coolant, but there
were no
visible leaks or signs of burning. Ended up having the head rebuilt b/c it
was warped. Try all other options first, but if nothing else works, this
may be your problem. Probably not what you want to hear, but it happens.
HTH,

Subject: RE: [a2-16v-list] RE:(A2-16v-list) poll: does your A2 leak oil?
speaking of leaks, does anyone have a problem with leaking/'burning'
coolant? I don't notice any leaks, but i'm constantly having to fill up my
coolant. I put in about a half gallon two weeks ago (400-600 miles) and my
coolant light came on again on the way to work. sure enough, it's low.
does that happen to anyone else?
Thanks,
Eric
