I would diagnose it first to make sure it isn't the thermostat first, once you figure that out you can tell us what engine you have so we could actually give you instructions to change it.

Sorry, what an idiot I am... I've got an 2000 1.8T Quattro sport

Oh and the thermostat was swapped out about 6 months ago.
Thanks
