ive noticed over the last couple of days that, when in traffic, my temperature rises from about 70 to around the 90+ mark. is this bad, am i going to cry and have to fork out again? or is it all ok really?

Is nothin major to worry about if its not goin too high, try putting you heaters on full when stationary that usually helps.

think thats pretty normal dude if i remember right, nothing to worry about as long as the fans cutting in ok. I think you can cure the noise either by taking out the fan/blower and re-greasing the bearings or just replace it, i dont think they are very expensive - it used to do that for me, i found that if you switch the blower off and back on it usually shuts it up.

yeah i thought that was the case, i never noticed it before, it's probably becuase i was bored in traffic and i started looking at it! haha!

My golf does it, especially in summer traffic. I always get a bit worried and insist on having heated blowers on pointing out of the window - doesn't half piss anyone else off who's in the car!

Always cringing if I see a thread started by you, I keep thinking something else has happened Shocked
