see yr getting plenty of replies??? :scratch:

BTW bro, mate wont be able to pop over today.. his syncro G60 failed MOT... so sorting that today, then he's away 2mrw.. but he promised he will defo pop round & help out..

It's a wierd one, but a stat change is always worth a go, VW ones are not unknown to come in dodgy batches.

Can you fully describe the engine coolant and oil heating process from cold with the time it takes for the gauges to come up in both driving and idling? - that might give some clues.

Bally has/had a similar problem on his 1.8, I even swapped oil temp sender over to eliminate that. it did improve with a genuine stat change.

When was your oil cooler changed?

do you have the heater bypass valves (recall job) and d you know how many miles they've done, how hot does the hot air int othe car get?

Yeap, big thanks for all yr help David..

I'd look at changing the stat for a gen one Jim.. even when dave & tested the new one to the patern part, the stat was opening fine... but since doing the stat to VAG one been running alot cooler.. only thing Im finding is the oil temps get high on a very hot day.. water temps seems to be alot cooler though...

8)

Bill you up for teh weekend at ED this year?

 

Have some "questions over a beer" I'd like to pose... :lol:

 

If only I could get mine to 1/10th the car yours and Bally's are I'd be happy! :clap:
