I dumped coolant at 22,000km in 2012 - well under spec. Was topped up with concentrate when PWR exchanger went on and twice more with turbo swaps. Bottom line, it was not through neglect. Car has only done 62,000km.My mechanic also checked earths etc - nothing found. A customer actually called in by chance and he too had a rear plug failure in his FG.My advice would be check your intervals and make sure glycol percentage is at a minimum of 33%. Mind you, mine was.Anyhoo, just unlucky and I'm just praying they're not all stuffed. If another one goes, I'll do them all. 1
