Got it. I already had filled it up but the next time I see it empty I'll try it. Now when I say empty, I wasn't completely sure it was empty empty but the bottom yellow fluid level indicator seemed dry. Maybe there was fluid below that. Probably took about a 1/4 to 1/2 cup of distilled water? Not too sure as I have a distilled water jug in my garage I keep for occasions like this.
Mine was visually like that too. After I drove a bit and parked the charge air cooler was hot.
Yep then yours is leaking into the intake manifold like this car! Service center ASAP!
