Just to let you guys know about last problem
Fans not coming on when reaching 90d So did testing relay ok Fans work when bypassed Fault code outward radiator sensor Replaced same fault Realised not all hoses getting hot incl gearbox cooler Hence why sensor not registering So diceded to change pump Brought tool of eBay happily went about changing Until tryed to pull pump out and thread on bolt striped Spent days try to get out by drilling to no avail So thought I'll try to buy tool from vw Guess what first it was only £38 Thread is m12/1.25 . The one from eBay was m12/1.75 Brought correct die Came home last night retreaded pump bolt Put vw tool on 15 mins from starting pump out Moral of story check with vw first before you buy from eBay Just lost 3 weeks plus ear bending from wife Edited by Boiler mike - 17 Aug 17 at 16:46 |

I hate to put you in line for any more ear bashing Mike but if the engine is not reaching temperature it will be the thermostat not the pump.
