Not that low because I topped it off before it got to that point but yeah it’s normal for our cars. It should only be the initial settling though, top it off engine cold with vw g12 evo 50/50 or distilled water and keep an eye on it. It shouldn’t drop any more once topped off for a while anyway.

Pros: normal for our cars
Cons: needs to be topped off

As you can see, straight from the jug, the Mazda coolant is resisting both corrosion and freezing better than the Motomaster.

Pros: resisting corrosion and freezing

These tsi motors tend to run hotter then standard engines. I would top off the car (once cooled typically around a hour) open it up and take it to the line above minimum, that\u2019ll be your maximum. Watch it over the next few weeks. If it goes below minimum again, you have some sort of leak.

Pros: tsi motors run hotter
Cons: potential coolant leak

I'd say to change out the coolant, and transmission fluid. DO NOT GET A TRANSMISSION FLUSH!!! Just get a place to change out the transmission filter, and top off the transmission fluid.

Cons: DO NOT FLUSH

Yes I had low coolant in my brand new CX-30 and had to top it off 2-3 times with the FL22 fluid (factory OEM). I think some air is left in the system that gets out over time. Since then no issue with the coolant level

Pros: no issue since
Cons: low coolant initially

I had my AC condenser replaced and looked at it in the parking lot and confirmed it was full of coolant, drove home, and it was low. I ordered and added some OEM coolant at home. It's been fine ever since

Pros: fine ever since
Cons: coolant was low

My 2029 Alltrack has developed the same problem at 50K miles. Drops about 1” for every two hours driven. You can see and smell the antifreeze.

Pros: can see antifreeze
Cons: drops quickly, smell antifreeze

I see your reservoir says G13 mit Silikat. Would recommend getting rid of G13 and removing the bag. G13 causes corrosion (resulting in a leak at the shaft of the water pump), leaves deposits (clogging the heater core and resulting in engine overheating), etc. Flush the system a couple times with distilled water and then fill up with G12evo coolant which doesn\u2019t have these issues.

Pros: G12evo coolant better
Cons: G13 causes corrosion

Yes, the documents say they are compatible - at the cost of losing some corrosion protection. Don\u2019t use G13 if you have a choice. G13 becomes acidic and causes leaks, and leaves deposits in the system which cause clogging. VW switched to G12evo for a reason.

Pros: compatible according to documents
Cons: losing corrosion protection
