Hi,
I have a 110 300tdi which is overheating!! (whats new!)
When crusing along the needle stays at half way no problem, then on hills with foot down, needle goes pass the red mark
. But pull my foot off the throttle at the top and the needle moves straight back to half way.
Then I have noticed that when the revs die down on going up the hill the temp will come down, or even towing a trailer the temp will keep down until the revs pick up again and the temp needle goes up with it!!!
Could this be a problem with the belt slipping as the power steering goes heavy after going through water.
Or am I just hopeing and that they are in fact two different problems!!!!!
