temp

My outside temp reading has been acting strangely.. -44 degrees C today :think:. I took off the passenger side fog light grill and noticed the sensor had fallen from its place in the bumper. I found it dangling and checked it out (physically looks ok) and replaced it in its 'slot' in the bumper...

1.8T BBU - Where does the instrument panel get it's temp reading from? I know it is NOT the coolent sensor to the right of the lump. I see no wires from the thermostat housing, it is not the sensor in the rad, it is not what i suspect is the knock sensor in the middle of the lump at the...

ok i got in my car yesterday and when i started the engine i got the same tone i think as when your fuel light came on, but the red light on the temp gauage started flashing and did for the whole 9mile trip i did checked the book and it said check coolant level and it was above miniumum in...

I've had both the one on the right of the head and one in the rad replaced. Anyone know which of the 2 is Engine Coolant Temp. Sensor G62? Being that both are 2 wire not 4 wire. I am tryig to fix the error which is still resent after replacing both sensors.

I have a 2002 ibiza 130 TDI sport.reacently it started beeping 3 times and then the red light constantly flashes in the temp guage.the car dose not overheat.it does this even when the temp is low.i checked coolant level which is fine.i replaced the 2 pin temp sensor. the header tank dose not...

Hey everyone, Just wandering what everyones temp gauge does? When mine is in traffic, town driving or im pushing it my temp sits back on 90 in centre of gauge, but when im on big open roads cruising at a fuel efficient 55 mph in 6th gear and the engine is hardly working the temp drops off to the...

hi guys, started the car up this morning and the warning light came on so i switched the car off and i checked the water level and it was above min and below max so started the car again and it didnt come back on. later in the day it did exactly the same. is this a faulty sensor or something...

Another little problem we've had with the Toledo since we've had it is the temp gauge doesn't move much. In fact, during normal driving, it doesn't move at all. If I let it idle with the heater on full and the fans off, it gets up to 90 and stays there. If I drive it, it doesn't move until...

Hi all, I've been having an intermittent fault with the red warning light on the temperature gauge coming on with the same beep as when the fuel light comes on! It seems to happen on cold starts and if the engine is turned off and back on again then the problem disappears! Its not throwing up...

I have baught an auto gauge oil temperature gauge and want to fit it to my 110 tdi. What sender unit will I need and where can it go on the engine?? Also, what pod have you used? Cheers Andy

After returning from a spirited ride with 20c degrees ambient temp. with the mk3 1.8 20vt, I noticed the oil temp. at 110c and when parked at the end of the ride , the Water temp. rose above 90 degrees just slightly . I should say that I'm with a brand new metal impellor water pump and LM 5W40...

Hi all. After an RR run yesterday I was told that I should replace my Black Temp Sensor with a green one. Not too sure why, can anyone help? What are the benefits?

Hi all, Today tried to wire up my oil temp gauge, got to the bolt that needs to be removed for the temp plug to screw into. This bolt does not move, and as trying to removed felt like the head was rounding. Does anyone know if it is a left handed thread? Anyone got any tips on...

Hi, it's a nice today.. today, but my temp gauge says it's 5 degrees just, about 10degrees out.. i've disconnected the battery briefly, but it hasn't reset.. any suggestions.. cheers

Now after having a spirited drive thought the gears (off road), Then slowed, Then planted the throttle thought the gears a 2nd time the car didnt seem to pull aswell before. Now the car is a 130PD with a remap. Now could this be from the intake temps getting to high thus making the turbo...

Realised this a week or so ago, my temp gauge only ocassionally goes up.. It moved up to the normal level about 6 days ago - but even on the way to work which is a 35/40min drive on the motorway the temp gauge never goes up to that middle mark (90 is it??) and on the way back from work too...

couple of quick questions guys: my temperature gauge has been up and down for the last few weeks (would work fine then drop down to zero then back up to normal temp.). It doesnt work at all now! any suggestions what it could be? a loose cable somewhere? when i leave the lights on and open...

This is an odd one, although I am sure its Coolant Temp sensor related. I have previously had Coolant Level sensor issues on my LCR which was cured by cleaning the prongs in the coolant water chamber and the coolant level sensor. Since doing this, the flashing amber light next to the coolant...
