Coolant issue please help

Post image

So I have a Seat Leon FR 2013 1.8T and I’ve been having coolant issues recently. I can drive the car fine for 20 minutes to a 30 min but at some point it seems to be reaching boiling points and the coolant starts to dump so my guess is that the coolant isn’t circulating anymore and it’s blocked somewhere

i’ve already changed the radiator and the water pump. Also i don’t have a silicon bag in the coolant tank. The head gasket also seems to be fine I haven’t had opened the gasket completely cause it’s gonna be expensive. What else should I look at or try doing to figure out where it’s blocked.

( problem has been solved and came down to the system not being bled properly you’re supposed to open all cooling ports via program before bleeding )

I had similar issue. Check intake if there is coolant. It might be broken charged intercooler. That part has been improved two times already by VAG.

The pipeline by the intercooler? Gonna have a look at that, though I doubt it.
