procedure to re-tighten the 1.6 headbolts
If you have a leak, i doubt re-tightening is going to fix that.

My Passat will not start. At about 50 degrees it will not start and sends no power to the glow plugs but if i unplug the temp sensor then when the key is turned on it does...
Just my opinion but i would replace the Thermostat as that is what is sounds like to me and that is cheap. When the thermostat opens it would drop the gauge that fast as its been holding all the coolant back.
