temperature

Another question from me I am afraid, searching shows up nothing... In the Seat owners guide it shows an outside air temperature reading on the dashboard, small text just above the clock on the left hand side... In my car I dont seem to have this luxury... Was it an option? Can it be...

I just noticed the temp gauge on my Ibiza is reading 110 degrees I turned the car off and it settled at 70 the bottom of the gauge is 50 the car is not getting hot and I had the temp sensor replaced not too long ago. is this a fualt with the gauge or a software fix?

Hi all, My temperature gauge is being a little temperamental. Basically it will sporadically lose its feed: The temperature will drop to zero, then it will start to rise again, perhaps then lose it again and drop down, then work its way up again.... It comes and goes. What sorts of...

Hi All, Hope someone might be able to help me as I'm a bit clueless when it comes to this sort of thing! I just had my cambelt and water pump changed on my 54 reg Leon Cupra and now when I first turn the engine on the temperature warning light beeps and then continues to flash throughout...

Car was sat while i was taking some pictures- and the car just nudged past the thicker line after 90. Is that 100? I think at that point the fans did kick in, and switched off when it dipped below the thick line again. I was always under the impression that these VAG cars pretty much stuck to...

Does anyone happen to know where the Ambient Temperature display gets it reading from on the car...........or in plain English where is the sensor located?

Hi all, The red flashing warning light on my temperature guage started flashing on Saturday (just once) and Sunday (again only the one time). It only did it from cold, once warmed up it stopped. My coolant was a touch low, but not below minimum, I topped it up and now that light has...

Hi guys. I want to fit an oil temperature gauge to my car but dont know where to wire it from. I've heard you can get sump nuts that are adapted to fit. A bit like this: http://www.merlinmotorsport.co.uk/advanced_search_result.php?keywords=sender&sort=3a&&page=3 Although I cant find...

Hi all, Had the car a week and have changed the Temp Sender from a Black to a Green one as I was getting the G62 faults on VAG-COM. Got the replacement Greeny (059-919-501A) from Fleabay and fitted. Two long test drives an dthe temps are showing funny. Yesterday would go above 75c...

right, i've tried a few searches on the subject and got some info, but im looking for a bit of clarification on it, just for my own piece of mind I have a 2002 mk3 ibiza cupra R, every morning when i start the car from cold (regardless of outside temperature) the coolant level warning light...

I just thought i would pass this on...... I have a 53 plate 1.9tdi Sport, and a couple of years ago the water temp gauge went a bit bonkers, with the needle going up and down from 0 to 130 as i was driving along. This was fixed at the stealers under warranty, and the temp sender unit was...

Hey People, My first post! :D After looking into buying a reliable motor, I decided on the Seat Leon! Have had it a short time and it's been fun to drive. Was after a nice small hatchback for the local trips instead of driving my own petrol guzzling car! It seemed to fit the bill...

I changed the thermostat the other day and this hasn't solved my problem of the car not getting upto temperature like it should. I thought it was stuck open but up on checking both the new and old one they both performed the same, perfectly. And at £3 I cant complain that it wasn't that. Now...

Hi, can anyone offer any advice on what would cause the temp gauge to randomly drop from 90oC down to nothing in a few seconds then rise back to 90oC during steady driving? The engine warms up fine and can sit at steady temp all day then drop back and forward on other journeys! Cheers.:confused:

As titled oil pressure or oil temperature guage, which one do you think is more important to have. Jon

My oil temperature has always been near enough dead on 90 degrees, yet today on the way to work I noticed it had crept up to perhaps 95. On the way home it was hovering around 110, pretty stable. I was hoping to find I'd driven over some newspaper which was blocking the grills on the bumper...

Hi My Outside temperature display seems to have gone a bit crazy it always seems to read 31c and i know theres no way in this country lol. Is this easy to replace / fix?? Also does it affect my heaters as i seem to be having to turn them right up high just to get some heat?? Very...

My heater seems to only have two settings, Hot - 18 degrees and above, or cold 'LO' - there is no happy medium, all of the settings above lo work on the same heat intensity. It used to work fine, with a smooth transition of heat increase but now i have to keep it on lo all of the time to...

Hi guys, i know its been a common thing on the forums but ill ask everyone again. Can anyone give me a picture where the coolant temperature sensor is pleeeeeeeease?? I drive a 2002 tdi sport 130 where the sensor is somewhere near the gearbox i think? A picture which one it is or at...

Hello I have some problems with my coolant temperature readings. Looks like it takes a lot of time to reach 90C. Then after some time it can go below 90 (about 80) and stay there for long, even during journey. Also i have quite bad MPG results. As i have read on this forum it might be...
