Mi passat (año 99) no le había pasado nunca; hace tres meses que lo tengo, y en un viaje este verano, en plena autopista, a 120km/h, se quedó el marcador de la temperatura del motor a menos del cuarto, pero el coche iba perfecto. Tampoco parece problema de refrigerante. Ya no me ha vuelto a pasar desde entonces, en ciudad la aguja está en 90º

CommentCoolant system malfunction
Volkswagen Passat 2002 GLS, station wagon, manual 5 speed 170000 miles
Had the check engine light come on a few times, the code is something to do with the coolant system. The temperature gauge doesn't like to register. Replaced the temp sensor, flushed the system, and checked for air pockets... nothing. The fuse was a little loose for the gauges, replaced it. Any ideas? Unsure if directly related, but the radiator housing unit is dual fan. I've been told that only one fan (as it is) would be spinning until i turn on the AC. Should both be spinning regardless, or is that not normal and potentially connected to the issue at hand?

Possible overcooling
Volkswagen Passat 2011 saloon 2L TDI Bluemotion 90000 miles
Engine over cooling. When heater is set to max heat and heater fan is on only luke warm air comes out of heater vents. Temperature Gauge does not go above the lowest mark. Gauge is working o k as when Stationary the gauge starts to show temperature rising. I had driven Car for 40 to 50 miles between 40 and 70 M P H and the Temperature gauge stayed on the lowest mark on dial instead of it usually showing a steady 90c
Is there a problem with the thermostat has it failed in the full open position ?
