Evening!

Had a bit of a temp guage issue the other day, the temp as never moved from dead centre on the dsah when she warms up! however, the other day is vent about 5mm past midway, sounds petty but its somthing thats never happened before!

Occasionaly i get a funny smell, kind of like the coolant is boiling! anychance that some one knows how to check exact coolant temp with vagcom, and would anyone mind checking theirs so i can comapre???

My car is a Ibiza 1.9 TDi Sport 110 model origionaly!

Thanks for any help!!

Editing your spelling
agreed, over 60k miles my old 110 ibiza never ever went over the indicated 90 degrees. Rock solid whatever the driving/conditions. So certainly something to look into.

Have you checked your fuses on the top of the battery?

The exact coolant temp via vag com will be 88 degrees.
