Coolant temp weirdness ...

[C-24]

My after-run mod kicks in nearly all the time now that i've had the K04 malarkey done ... I also have fun!

How can you make (or where can you provide) an after run mod ?

You say it's wierd that your temperature fluctuate from 90 to 85
When it's cold, my temperature is 90° after a few miles when I drive normally, but otherwise, it can reduce to the bottom when driving faster.
Hope it's nothing dangerous for the car.

nice thread

Search the Modifications 'sticky' section - there is a link in there on how to do the after-run mod ...

Ummm .... that does sound a little strange!

Okay thanks I'll search in the sticky section.
As for the temperature, maybe it's a sensor problem, but it wasn't detected by vag com when I went to the garagist.

Mmm, I'd get vagcom on that and check ECU coolant temp under same conditions. Shouldn't harm the car as long as ECU is seeing the real coolant temparature. As I said before there are two sensors, the one on the dash is just for us lowly humans. If it is playing up it won't affect the engines operation. This wouldn't be picked up by vagcom.

Could be an air bubble but I wouldn't expect temp to drop that much if that was the case. The air should be roughly as hot as the coolant.
