Hey all I just finished installing a new radiator instead of a really leaky and clogged one, which probably also had tap water in it, and also flushing the rest of the system with a garden hose. Then I replaced the generic coolant to a G12+ equivalent. While in the past the temperature never budged from 90C, on the first long drive I've noticed it goes down to 80C and 70C at 100kmh even with the AC (and the fan) off. Going downhill even gets it to 60C! Ambient temperature was around 20C. I never though it was possible. Going uphill however brings it to exactly 90C like in the past (a

I can 100% confirm that my cooli

Hey, just had a mini disaster on the Mk2. On the radiator, the plastic fitting for the hose off to the expansion tank has snapped. I don't know what to do about this, do I need a whole new radiator? ECP and VWHeritage are not bringing up promising results.

9N3 1.2 BMD engine radiator fan not working
Andyt157 posted a topic in Engine, Transmission and Exhaust
Having problem with fan. After a good run and stationary for about 15mins temp gauge rises and alarm sounds but not all the time. Had it looked at by 2 garages. 1 couldn't find a fault. Other replaced cooling fan sensor and said could be the fan control unit. This has now been replaced also. It's appears its still not working. Any ideas on what to look at next? -
