    CRUE Engine Runs Hot? Thermostat or water pump?

    I'm willing to bet with 99.9% accuracy your water pump has failed you. heat brings the temps down because it turns on the AUX pump which moves fluid.... and cools the motor at the same time. VCDS will confirm this if you watch temps.

    the CVCA actually does not do well with any of the grills blocked. the complex cooling system would rather handle the cold on its own... in my experience. I miss my CJAA sometimes

    Looking for fitment feedback on Nicktane Filter Kit Mk7 Golf

    if you send me the right stuff (im happy to purchase if you have a link?) im glad to see if it fits on my 15 Golf. there are differences between the CVCA and CRUA engines.. both of which are used in the MK7. that might be why some fit and some don't?
