If In doubt, Flat out!
Evening!
I have a strange issue. I have had an issue for a while where if i undo the coolant cap when warm, the coolant boils up, rather than just releasing pressure.
Only today, I noticed that on the liquid gauge and VCDS the coolant temp is rising to 110C +, but the cluster gauge is reading bang on 90. I have also noticed that the auxiliary water pump isn't working - probably related? I tried to power up the coolant fan via VCDS, but no life. I have checked fuses on top of the battery and they seem to be ok. I don't use the car a lot, so couldn't say how long it has been like this. It's done a maximum of 800 miles in the last year. :-(
Any ideas anyone?
