Hello, I've had my new Stilo 3dr 1.6 Dynamic for just 10 days, and upon opening the bonnet this morning, I discovered that the coolant reservoir, which on the day I got the car was bright blue and filled to the MAX mark, has dropped in level by a small amount, but more worryingly now has a sand/brown coloured mess sitting at the bottom, with the original blue coolant still sitting above it.
I'll have to contact the local dealer tomorrow about it (they are not the supplying dealer - they are on the other side of the country) but could anyone shed some light on what the problem is? As I said, its only 10 days old and has only done 180 careful miles. I'm terrified it could be something terrible like oil in the coolant, but I don't really know. Any ideas?
Many thanks.
