slow to heat up
June 16, 2024, 16:58:52
hi all, it seems my 130 1.0 g-tdi takes at least 10+ mins to get too normal working temp, i think this is too long, also it takes about 6+ mins before the temp needle starts to move. Dealer says no faults found.
Any suggestions please ?

Does the radiator fan work via an electric relay and is stuck on all the time?

thanks for the reply, and no, the electric fan is not on all the time.

Check coolant level, leaking, sludge, radiator blockage and thermostat behaviour.
