Title: Hot hot

A lot of heat coming from back of engine? Bonnet getting extremely hot at the back? I've been told the tfsi engine creates a lot of heat, I'm just double checking with you guys if this is a worry?

If your temp gauge is going no higher than 90 and your coolant bottle is at the correct level, then chances are everything is okay  :happy2:
