Faulty tempreature sensor may be, it's located behind the grill in with the cooler pipe work I belive.

Time for a new sensor, not expensive and its fitted into the bottom of the box oil cooler behind the rad. Can be accessed through the plastic trim panel under the drivers wheel arch by the anti roll bar.

Hi Gazzab, i had the same problem recently & upon checking i found the loom up to the sensor on the front cooler pipe had been chaffing & was earthing out. It might be worth checking.
