Hello, hope some kind soul can offer a pointer.
2004 TDI 90 running normally until Thursday when yellow engine light came on after about 5 minutes driving. Stopped and started again and engine light came on straight away. Parked and left engine to cool down, started and light reappeared after about 5 mins. Engine running fine throughout. Started again last night, engine turns over but didn't catch but eventually ran after about 5 attempts. Stopped and started again and engine fired straight away.
Turned over cold engine again this morning and doesn't start again. Gendan diagnostic meter says 1 fault - PO118 (Engine coolant temp circuit high input). Panel says OK, no yellow coil light. Recent major service about 2,000 miles ago inc. all filter changes, battery healthy, outside air temp 5-15 degrees C throughout. Crank sensor replaced about 30k ago.
Any suggestions very welcome.
David
