Hi guys got a 2001 S3 8L, never had this issue before but last night when picking my girlfriend up from work I'd been on a short 4 mile drive round town. Temperature was fine running at 90 degrees. Sat in the car park with it on idle just looking at my phone the heard a beep. I thought I'm sure I don't need petrol, looked at the temp guage and it was past 100 degrees. Turned the engine off and popped the bonnet to let it cool. Fortunately the girlfriend was late out so I let it cool. Steadily drove home keeping an eye on the temp and it was fine never went above 90 degrees. Any idea what could've caused it and what I may need to do?
Cheers guys
