[s-cars] Pissing Coolant

[Sean Douglas]

Douglas;

This is a common failure, the plastic T fitting gets old and cracks. You
will need a new T fitting, 4A0 819 497. The sensor is 025 906 041 A and its
blue.

While you are there, you might as well replace the plastic fitting at the
back of the head where the other end of the hose connects to, 034 121 143 E
and gasket N 900 351 03.
