Hey all. My 2000 TDI with 370,000 miles has just started to over heat. The odd thing is that the STOP warning comes on (my UK cluster) and then the temp hits 130. I stop and by the time I get to the engine the coolant is filled back up and when I get back into the car the temp comes back down. After the temp came down I did add some warm water and then shut the car off. I could hear the coolant boiling near the flange.
I am assuming this is caused by the thermostat. Any other ideas? Temps have been over 90*F lately although a few months ago I was in Texas with this car and over 90*F too.
Any help would be helpful help in helping.
And yes, I still have the stock clutch from day 1 (and a VNT 25 to boot )
