See GSB: G0000161 for details.
| General Service Bulletin (GSB): | 1.5L GTDI Coolant Consumption |
| GSB Overview: | This document provides information regarding the coolant consumption causes for the 1.5L Gasoline Turbo Direct Injected (GTDI) engines |
| NOTE: This information is not intended to replace or supersede any warranty, parts and service policy, Work Shop Manual (WSM) procedures, technical training or wiring diagram information. | |
Overview:
Identification of the root cause of coolant consumption on 1.5L GTDI is key to assuring proper repair.
- Inspect the cylinder deck surface for dents or impressions. Figure 1.
Figure 1
- Inspect the cylinder head and block for warpage, cracks, surface impressions and collapsed saw cuts between the cylinder bores. Figure 2
- Follow Workshop Manual section 303-01 for further diagnostic aides.
Figure 1
- If any of these conditions are present during the inspection, a long block assembly is the lowest service repair.
- Please note, it is the responsibility of the technician to perform the inspections outlined in the workshop manual section 303- 03A > Diagnosis and Testing > Engine Cooling > Inspection and Verification and workshop manual section 303-01A Engine system – General Information. This ensures that there are no drivability concerns outside of the engine that could lead to a repeat repair.
