Houdini coolant?

[Tony Hoffman]

Look at the coolant flange at the back of the head. Common leak point on
both the 1.8T's and 2.0T's. Just did one a couple of days ago, major pain
compared to the early 1.8's.

They typically leak just enough to leave a trail, but not enough to puddle
on the ground before evaporation.
