temperature

Hi all My engine light came on before Xmas, and my temperature guage started doing strange things - basically going up and down - not staying mid way like it should. Also the car was starting rough with a warm engine (fine from cold) I took it to a local garage who said iot was the...

Fault Code: 17704 - Error in Mapped Cooling System (usually temp Sensor or Thermostat) P1296 - 35-00 - - I Know the usual answer for solving this fault code, "replace the temperature sensor to the green top sensor, -you probably have the black top one!" I Have...

Hi, This happened before and was rectified with a new thermostat, but about a month after the same thing is happening: Temperature gauge never quite gets to 90, will fall back to 0, then up again, then down... Seems a bit strange for the thermostat to fail twice in quick succession. Is...

I have a 170PS Exeo ST. Very pleased with it, but I want to get others help on a query. In this very cold weather, the temp.gauge takes ages to register "normal" (shall I say a vertical needle on the dial) If I am going with the traffic, say 50 ish MPH, the gauge will actually never reach...

Temperature gauge hi all i run a leon 1.8 20v turbo on a 52 plate, normally the tempriture gauge wen engine warm is normally at 90 an doesnt move, yesturday i was driving an it started to drop down to 60 an back to 90. Any ideas people????

While driving my car today(2003 Leon Cupra) i noticed the temperature gauge rising up past the 90 mark and it rose to 120 with a red flashing light and a beeping noise.i stopped the car and checked it over as best i could, signs of fluid leak, checked all fluids etc, but nothing.i rang my local...

Hi Quick question. When I first start up my motor, my dash display shows the frost symbol as it should when the temp drops below a certain level. However, when I pull away, there is no audio alarm to warn me of the frost outside although the manual states it should. The book states...

This is starting to bug me now. I know that the air stops working at exterior temperatures below about 3 degree's. Which is a a bit of a pain in the backside when the inside is misted up and its a cold morning. Does or has anyone come across a mod to alleviate the problem, because my mother...

Hi, I bought my Leon Cupra TDi a couple of months ago, and, until now, it's been great. However, over the past week or so, i've getting into the car every morning and have been noticing that where the time is usually displayed, the temperature shows as 4.5 degrees or sometimes 5 degrees and...

I've just noticed my dashboard doesn't have a temperature gauge :( How will I know the engine is ready for a thrashing? :confused: Am I missing something here?

My new Ibiza seems really hot in the cabin & no the heaters not on. I am loath to put the air con on.... any ideas, is this normal?

Hi Everyone, I've recently encountered a potentially serious issue with my 2001 (Y) Toledo (TDI SE). Whilst on the motorway with a tape being played in the cassette player. The temperature guage goes to full (overheat) (yellow dot) along with a constant beeping. This has happened a couple...

I think my external temp gauge has gone to tell me the outside tmep etc coz the dial read all zero’s this affects the heating cooling coz I either have full hot or full cold nothing between, in summer not to bad but winter is a pain when windows steam up etc, Im sure ive seen someone selling...

Hi guys... Problem with the car on the way home from work today... Recently when the car is cold, sat at lights the revs go above 1k for 30 seconds then dip back to normal, then will do this a few times, until warm. Today, on the way home from work, as normal the car normally gets up to 75 on...

my engine management light has came on again and from a previous thread someone told me about Check Coolant Temperature Sensor (G62) just wondered were i can find this sensor?? and is it easy to change?

hi guys im sorry to repeat this, as its probably been covered loads of times, but its really getting on my nerves trauling through all the old posts and cant find what i want. I got my mate to run his vagcom for me and its spat this out: Friday, 21 August 2009, 18:11:41 VAG-COM...

Hi, Last time I had the AA out to replace a coil pack, he reset the warning lights and said that I need a new coolant sensor as well I have managed to get one off ebay but I can't find out where it is to replace it I have a 02 Leon 1.6 Mk1 Does anyone have a picture of the location...

Hi, One question. is anyone else concerned at the fact the car does not have an engine temperature gauge? It would be nice to see if things were going wrong, rather than having to wait for the engine overheating and stop engine light to come on. Maybe the centre display could have scrolled...

Hey all, I've got a 52 plate LCR which I've owned for approx 4 weeks. I've noticed that the temperature takes no time at all to reach optimum temp. My trip to work is quite short (approx 4 miles) and before I'm halfway there it's already up to 90 degrees. It never goes beyond 90 degrees and...

to start with i HAVE searched the forums so no snidey comments :p Ibiza TDI 02 mk4 1.9 TDI PD130 as you may well guess by the title the little red light in the temp gauge bit, has started flashing, its usually when it gets up to 90C but the temp doesnt go over that it just sits there as per...
