Re: got my jetta but...
the radiator, thermostat, hoses, were replaced (replaced by volkswagon) water pump works great fluid level is normal fluid is flowing
the fan will kick on for 3 seconds the turn off then on 2 min later then off
when i drive in the morning (730 am my time) it stays cool but when its in the sun and i start it it gets to the hot position after 10 minutes of driving
this car is the replacement for my toyota pickup i had (1986) it would over heat constantly so i know what a car does when it over heats
my brother let it idle for 2 hours and it got to the hot but never boiled or even got close so i think the sensor is bad
i have heard that 91-96 jettas get "bubbles" in the cooling system
where there will be an air clog in the system so it tells the car its hot because the air is hot
