Why coolant in throttle body on S2?
I went and took my S2 throttle body off my car so i could reseal it and when i popped the hoses off I was suprised to see coolant flying out. Maybe i am having a dumb moment, but I don't remember this when I resealed my turbo throttle body. Why is coolant running through the throttle body? What purpose does it serve? I am guessing it helps up the price of replacement throttle bodies 
in any case I am very glad I did this because the inner o-ring was broken and coolant was slowly seeping into the intake, at least I'm pretty sure that's where it had to go.
