Water Temp sensor

Post by generalbaxter »

well after taking it to VWmidlands last year for a service, they told me i needed a new sensor,

gauge is constantly cold, apart from when i stop when it goes to normal half way, pull away it goes back down,
so i think its time for a new one, maybe ill get better mpg as its thinking its cold all the time :hyst

whats the location of this sensor?

1998, 1.8T AEB engine,

iv heard rumors about a 'green' and a 'blue' type sensor as well!

i recon this is the cause for it bogging down when i boot it aswell :roll:
