Coolant leaks

Post by tonderai29 »

I have a dodge calibre 2.0 diesel , the motor is a vw bkd . Started loosing coolant, have to top up no signs of oil in the water, or water in the oil , , changed the thermo housing, temp switch housing , the raves only going up to 3500 only, (no power) got a throttle error coming on , turbo is not kicking in . As well. Anyone to attend to these or advice would be greatly appreciated..
