Distilled water is not the what the label said.
Check closely it's deionized water.

The folks with whom I have communicated with in France & Belgium all said
they have the same problem with the heads. I was looking to purchase an
Oettinger Wasserboxer 6 until my contact warned me that the Oettingers are
just as prone to the same problems as the VW Wasserboxer 4. After all it is
just a flat 4 with two extra cylinders attached to the end.
