JMC 0 Posted May 14, 2008 I'm assuming you're refering to the coolant temp here. There should be quite a bit on the search about this. However the sender which feeds the water temp on the dash is the black one on the pipe work coming out of the front of the head. Buy one from VW (called, funnily enough, black temp sender) rather than other places such as GSF, and they are about 10-15 quid from memory. That should cure the temp not reading on the dash. Question is, is the temp alright in the system - what does the oil temp look like in use, and does the rad get hot when it should etc? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
