Nice easy question for you lot, when was the changeover to OBD2 for Golfs? Would a 1993 VR be OBD1 or OBD2?

Never mind the dew, I had to scrape ice off my windscreen the other day....

Alright craggsy, I've just spend a lot of time and money on these wheels, only had them on just over a week so I can't see me selling them anytime soon! -
Not much to say really, here's my Corrado [img: width=500]http://the-corrado.net/upload/files/149/IMG_1119.JPG [img: width=500]http://the-corrado.net/upload/files/149/IMG_1121.JPG [img: width=500]http://the-corrado.net/upload/files/149/IMG_1117.JPG :-p Moderator edit by: VR6Rich

Strange temperature problem

Yeah thought it could be that Pete, but everything else works fine? Does anyone know where the dash temps are measured - do they have separate sensors? -

It's not that it's not reaching operating temp, VAG-COM confirms that it is. It's just the gauges are giving a false reading. -

Driving along normally, the water temp sits at about 70, then when sitting stationary the gauge doesn't even reach 90 before the fan cuts in. Then if I start moving again it drops like a stone to 70 again! Oil temp reads 60-70 most of the time, sometimes reads 80 but very rarely! -
Strange one this... the water temp and the oil temp are both reading about 20 degrees cooler than normal. First thing I did was change the thermostat because I thought it might be stuck, but that didn't make any difference. So I put it on VAG-COM while it was running, and the temperatures reported actually looked normal on the computer, but the gauges on the dash are still reading about 20 degrees too low! So basically, the engine seems fine, fan cuts in at the right temp etc, but the gauges are wrong. What on earth could cause this?
