Hi, I have a 55 plate 1.4 Megane, I've been have trouble in the mornings for the last week with the car cutting out when cold and not wanting to start again, when I do get t started and try to accelerate the revs drop off. After a couple of minutes it all works fine and then is fine for the rest of the day, I went to do some checks last night and noticed I had no water in the car, the bottle was completely empty and thick with a off white coloured sludge, I topped the water up and it comes straight out the bottom somewhere( guessing a split pipe), any one have any ideals please.
 
Hello Wayne, The white coloured sludge in the bottle could be either old coolant or else old coolant mixed with a new different type of coolant. Check your oil dip stick and also your oil filler cap to eliminate the possibility of oil in your coolant.
I suggest you get your system flushed out completely and refilled with the correct coolant, but first you have to find out where its leaking and repair it
