Hi there, Im a new member and im after some help.

I have just bought a mk 3 golf gti 8v and something is bothering me. The temperature guage on the car hardly moves. I drove 30 miles earlier to work and the needle barly hit 70 degres. I would have thought that the engine would have heated up more than that. Is it something i should be worried about.

could it be thermostat or possibly temp sensor on thermo housing. any advice would be great.
