Hoorah! Got the GTi back. Multiple fault codes - Coolant flow regulator valve partially stuck open. Replaced parts: Coolant valve, electric thermostat, water pump and union (all VAG OEM) antifreeze and 4 hours labour: £653 Ex VAT. So pleased to get it back.

Unbelievable how badly other drivers treat you in it. One guy overtook me in a 30 zone, only to turn right just a few yards further up the road. What a g*t. Really looking forward to getting the GTi back.

I find other drivers to be really aggresive when I drive my OH's Lupo, she does too. It's ridiculous as you are driving at the same speed as everyone else yet you get bullied :cry: Never get it in the GTI nor in any of my previous cars.
