Polo 1.2 bluemotion

[Quesadilla]

Good day. I have a 1.2 bluemotion I need some help. The car loses power when going uphill. I took out the PDF but did not delete the software. Now and again it loses water and the light comes on. Please help.

It sounds like the car is going in to limp mode but there are multiple reasons for this so I suggest getting the car scanned for fault codes and go from there. As for the water loss, it could be many things, check for obvious leaks and contamination of the water.

DPF typing error. The phone corrected itself

Blown head gasket or popped oil cooling heat exchanger.

And the coolant?

Was red but can't see its milky and thickish.

Isn't it quite normal for polo with undersized engine to lose power when going uphill?

Changed the oil cooler but still doing the same.

It's a popped head gasket. Easy if you're mechanically inclined. Possibly pricey if you get a mechanic to do it

If a head gasket is popped is the oil not supposed to mix in the oil pan? I am mechanically inclined and with the past experiences it has always been the cooler. This one is a bit confusing.

Get the head gasket checked.
