Any model year more likely to have problem? Stock vs chipped?

Default Not that I've been able to tell so far. We're still working to collect that type

of information.

Default It just happened to me yesterday

I drove my car for about 30 minutes (not hard) and when I parked I noticed a small leak.
I came back to my car an hour later and there was a huge spot underneath.
I probably lost 2 quarts. I filled up the coolant and I drove for another 30 minutes and parked my car again and there was nothing. Not even a drop.
Any ideas?

Default I haven't yet put together a list of possible causes, though there are some

in various posts on the B5 S4 forum. On this page I've put a link to a TSB on the aux. coolant pump that seems to be a frequent problem with leaks.<ul><li><a href="http://www.myaudis4.com/info_coolant_leak.htm">Coolant leak info</a></li></ul>
