[QUOTE="SVT_S5, post: 16882468, member: 202601"] Took too long to update, sorry! So I have drained the coolant from block drain plug, thermostat elbow and radiator plug and found some interesting stuff! Coolant puke could be easily seen all over engine bay: [IMG]https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20230225/cfe892f05f841ccef13f1b7f55882aed.jpg[/IMG] Blackish/Brownish soot/mud inside coolant reservoir.
