Coolant temp sensor locations

Featured Replies

2.0 tsi vrs.

 

Temp needle is shooting straight to 90c so think i have a bad temp sensor.

 

What is their location please, so i can get the part nos and order some.

 

Ta.

Should be 2. One at bottom rad outlet. One on block below vacuum pump. If you are ordering off skoda you won't need part number.

 

I would guess the block One. Try disconnecting and see if the guage shows 0. Have you got a scan tool?

 

They're both slightly tricky to get to. You may need to move / remove other parts.

I've ordered both, the one by the radiator looks easy, the one on the block is behind an inlet pipe but looks accessible. Yes I have torqueapp, which also shows 90ish even before engine start, which matches with the engine temp gauge.

Ok. I think the primary temp is the block. The rad is a second temp parameter.  Torque will only pickup temp 1.
