The darling polo seems to over heat quickly beleive it the engine block frozen because the bottom pipe is cold and the top hose is piping hot and idea how to unfreeze it. tried with hot water and more anti freeze and warming up the engine then cooling it but no luck, Any Ideas?

polos run with the top hose hot this time of year, the bottom hose only gets hot once the thermostat opens,

If you remove the thermostat it will get hot, fan should cut in ok, however once on the move your heater will not workPOLO 6N Frozen up Icon_cry
