Hi my 2001 seat Leon tdi ASV 110bhp is over heating.
First of all I meant oil cooler not pump my bad!
It seems to be OK around town and when idling but after being on the motorway for more than 15-20min it will overheat.
There is a lot of oil in the water but no water in the oil, there is also a lot of pressure building up.
So far I have removed the thermostat and flushed the whole system but after letting it tick over for 15min it was back to the way it was, this is a pic of the expansion tank
Now after doing a lot of forum reading think it's either the head gasket or the oil cooler although I don't understand how if it where the oil cooler how it should cause it to overheat?
Any suggestions thanks
