Draining Coolant

WARNING: This page is about a different variant/trim than selected.
WARNING: Vehicle electrical system is live while draining the coolant 
  • Overheating of components 
  • Damage to the high-voltage system 
    1. → Disconnect the battery for the 12 V vehicle electrical system before opening the cooling system.
    2. → Disconnect external power connection.
    3. → Observe specified sequence of work steps.
WARNING: Hot fluid 
  • Danger of scalding 
    1. → Avoid contact with hot fluid.
    2. → Wear personal protective gear.
CAUTION: Overpressure in the cooling system 
  • Failure of components 
  • Escaping coolant 
    1. → Before getting started, reduce the pressure in the compressed air system to 0 bar.
    2. → Keep the air pressure at max. 1 bar in order to blow out the cooling system.

Information 

Collect coolant in a collection container. Remove any coolant that runs out immediately.

Information 

  1. Remove front underbody cover.

    > Refer to the appropriate service information.

  2. Place a suitable collection container under the vehicle.
  3. Only for PHEV: 

    Drain coolant at the heat exchanger for the high/low-temperature cooling system.
