Supercharged 2 Posted June 25, 2006 Welcome to the forum - are you sure the thermostat is opening and the fan still coming on when it should? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SPADGE-g60-sideways 0 Posted June 26, 2006 tks not 100 % sure about thermostat or fan sensor gonna buy another thermostat from vag specialist garage - one i got from parts supplier didnt look as good quality as the old one i took out. im pretty sure this is where the prob is fan sensor renewed abt 9 mths ago - fan coming on jhust not as soon as i think it should Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
