Could you tell me where the sensor is located and do you have any idea on how much they are? My temp guage has not worked for years and I know the clocks are OK.

Pretty sure this is on the right hand side o the engine. They're aroun £40 from vw I believe.

Thats correct but trust me - if its not a genuine VW sensor, itll likely fail again.

Where exactly does this fit?

Thats a different sensor mate.

The one we are talking about is the engine temperature not the outside sensor.

There have been multiple cases where these have failed if not genuine replacements.

Ah! I thought we were talking about the outside temp sensor too

The outside sensor goes behind the front bumper in front of the air con condensing rad.

Engine temp is a 4 pin
