Coolant temperature sensor

Post by lacroupade »

So...the usual VW "fake news" :wink: I had a dramatic-sounding "EMISSIONS - WORKSHOP!!" error message and beeping, but after kacking myself for a minute I realised the water temp gauge is dead, so I assume the coolant temp sensor needs replacing.

I've checked the "how to" section and a few posts but can't see much useful....My three queries are:

1. Where is the bloody thing?

2. Anyone bought a VW one recently and can tell me roughly what the cost is? (I'm in France where car parts are ridiculously expensive, so if its cheaper to wait til I visit the UK in April, I will!).

3. Any traumas/difficulties with removal and replacement?

Yours in anticipation
