Shoduchi:
Thinking again about it, maybe I shouldn't have driven so fast, since the engine was too cold. :ashamed:

Don't worry about about it m8 just changed my main stat as coolant temp would not go above 75º.
The oil temp with the broken stat was 83º its now sitting at 94º.
Just get it done as soon as you can.

Today I totally forgot that I shouldn't drive too fast with the engine not at the correct temperature. The engine runs happier and more willing at 100 mph than at 75... :ashamed:
Still waiting for those parts from VW. :\

I have a spare inline stat if u have not ordered one.

Thanks mate, ordered the only one my engine has (MY2008). Older engines have two, for what I read. I won't need to drive much until I have all the parts required to do the engine mods and sort that stat issue. My wife still doesn't need the GT Sport for her daily commute. :smiley:
