My temperature gauge has always been rock solid at 90°C once warmed up regardless of driving condition (motorways or in town).
I've recently had a cam belt change as I was unsure when it was changed last (Odo 186,000) and had the water pump changed at the same time as a precautionary.
Last month...
Hi All
I've recently taken ownership of a '53 1.6 Sport. Following the destruction of my previously cherished Golf V GTi by a driver that fell asleep and smashed into me, I wanted a quirky, future classic, iconic car, and this one ticked the boxes. It seems a great little car, looks like...
So, i've done a bit of research and it would appear that the G62 temperature sender sends 2 signals;
One to the on board temperature display on the dash and the other to the ECU (Please correct me if i'm mistaken!)

Hi all,
My A2 Fsi is going well except for a couple of issues I cannot identify the reason as to why.
My car starts fine everytime but the temp gauge never goes higher than 30 unless I'm in traffic. Also I'm only getting hot air from the car after 30 mins of driving or in traffic. I have a...
Hello everyone, first post on here so treat me gently! It's actually not my car but my wife Rebecca's (who is on here as... err .... Rebecca :D ).
We've noticed that the external temperature is overreading - it's consistently about 3 degrees over what the temperature actually is. It's been...
Can any one help !!

My replacement green coolant temperature sender 4 pin vw audi pt 059 919 501 A does not fit the male electrical connector on my 2001 1.4 TDI (the existing black sensor also has a D connection, but it is smaller).
This is clearly a case where size matters.
Is there an adaptor available to...
