In the 2017 AudiQ7, there are several possible areas where coolant leaks may occur. The cooling system functions as a large loop that starts at the radiator, flows through hoses, then goes into the water pump and the engine to cool it down before returning to the radiator. The main causes of coolant leaks are typically a damaged radiator hose or a loose clamp, both of which are simple to repair and usually easy to identify. If you observe coolant leaking in the front of the engine, it could indicate a water pump failure or a faulty gasket. Additionally, a defective head gasket might also result in coolant leakage.
A malfunctioning expansion tank is one of the reasons why there may be a coolant leak in a 2017 Audi Q7.
