It’s definitely not over heating. Will check the thermostat and sensor. I did a bit of digging on google and it seems to be quite a common fault. But have yet to find a definitive cause. On a plus note I filled up Friday night £113, have used half a tank and Ive done about 185 miles so far. Not...

hi guys
The temp gauge on my 4.6 hse never seems to go out of the blue on the gauge. It normally sits Between the first and second line of the blue but sometimes goes up to the edge of the blue on a long journey.

Sorry guys managed to do a temp fix with a champagne cork and had to get the kids home(I don’t know what was worse the disco or the angry hungry bored 7 year old) have ordered 2 brass ones off Ebay. Thanks again.

Ok but how do I bypass it and will it cause any damage?

Hi guys does anyone know what could possible be the fault or if anyone has a thermostat for a 300tdi as I have some how broke the plastic lug on the top of mine and it is now firing out steam faster than a Turkish baths.
I have the AA on the way but any input would be much appreciated
Thanks...

Thanks. I did look at a D3 but couldn’t shake the need for a D1 300tdi. The added bonus is I got a manual this time not the auto.
