RE: Temp. in Audi 80 1992 1.9 TDI
ok, thank you 
I have no update regarding the overheating yet, but I have another question regarding heat..
When I drive slow-city-driving or idle the car, the temp. seems to stay at 80, how could this be?
Thermostat should open at 88, thermoswitch at 95, so what could cause the temp. to stay at 80?
Is there any other thing that could cool the car at 80?

when this hapens, open the hood and check the botom hose if it is hot, if it is hot then the sensor is bad and probably when you drive under load then your temp is about 110 or even hoter. if it is like cold or just a bit warm then your thermostat is opening to early. or just stuk open which can happen over time.

When I drive the card harder, I reach 90 (hopefully it wont go above 95 anymore 
But it seems to have a preference for about 80, as it gets up to 80 and then hangs until I push it somewhat hard.
When I reach 90, and then go back to some slow city-driving, it tends to go towards 80 again.
Today when I drove home, the temp. was at 80 when I got home. The upper hose was hot, but the lower one was cold at the bottom and a little warm on top. I guess this is because it gets heated from the outside at the top.
