petervr6 0 Posted January 13, 2007 Author Report Share Posted January 13, 2007 to be hounest i havent checked anything but it does seem to be when the engine is cold but i did change the the temp sensor about 8months ago(thats the blue one) but i was also thinking myself that it could be the alarm playing up if i put it on a vag-com should this show the faults ov if its the alarm it wount but if its any thing to to with the relays etc?
