Hey Guys
I have a rather unusual intermittent cooling issues,
It only started doing it today and i have no idea what it could be that's causing it.
i was driving in and around town no heavy accelerating just nice and calm etc and when i parked up i saw my gauge was up to 1 notch off red , now iv never had that problem before so i thought it might just be normal.
however when driving home very slowly trying not to accelerate hard it was fine, untill i started accelerating hardly i literally saw the needle going up to just under the red i then immediately let off the gas and the needle dropped back down to halfway.
i drove very slowly home and when parking up and putting it in park i saw the needle shoot up to just under red again. ?!?!?! It stayed at red untill i lightly reved the engine to see what would happen and whilst revving it started to come down to halfway then stayed put when i stopped revving. ??
i have a TT jspec 97 facelift Auto with FMIC and standard radiator
i will check in a minute to see if i have low coolant or any pipes leaking but i cant understand why it would almost overheat just staying still ??
any help would be great. oh and sorry about essay, i had to describe it the best i could
