Okay,


Just put my DP on this morning, got everything hooked up, burped the coolant of bubbles topped it off, turned the key and the car started right up. It idles at 1,000 perfectly, non-seq the turbos kick in nicely I'm only seeing 5 psi of boost so far, but I'll fix that.

My problem is, how much coolant will I have to keep adding till this damn coolant light shuts off. It seems like, I top it off, turn the car on, and right when I turn the car on, the buzzer goes on. Whats going on???

Is there a way I can get all the air out of the system compleatly? I really want to take the car for a ride asap but I dont want to w/ that damn buzzer on.

any help would be great, thanks

When you drain and refill the coolant, that's what happens. Just keep adding water/coolant until it stops.

sounds good

Let it idle until it heats up enough to open the thermostat. It should suck in some more coolant then.

when filling up with water, did you remove the coolant line going to the top of the throttle body? keep adding coolant until water starts to seep out of this hose. then reconnect it and put the filler cap back on and drive. this lets air come out of the block and water fill it up.

btw... when on a non seq, when will the turbos hit full boost?

You might check to see if you connected BOTH of the add coolant wires. Many people miss the single spade connector down by the PS and AC pumps.

I had the same problem a few years ago on a project car, took me about 1 wk to figure it out.

Depends entirely on your intake/exhaust configuration at the moment. With stock everything, should be at about 5k. With full exhaust, (including MP) should be somewhere near 3800 or so. And it varies with varying degrees of exhuast open..ness.
