Hi - about 6 weeks or so ago - my polo started heating unexpectedly -
Opening the bonet i found the coolant reservoir had a crack in it and was leaking - changed that - but still had the overheating problem -
my next check was the thermostat - which i changed and for the next 2 weeks everything seemed fine-
Then one day - the overheating came back again - I took the thermostat out as a quick fix and found the pin had fallen out so ive left ithe car without it - went to the vw dealer today to get a new thermostat- fitted that - and within10 minutes of driving overheating problem returns -
any ideas ????
