Hi,

What temp gauges is everyone running? Have you found any aftermarket ones which accurately work with the standard VW temp sender? mines a 1.9td aaz.

Cheers

Tom

I've found this one works pretty accurately with the vw sender. flush mounts in the blank dial space neatly too.

I was actually using a VDO oil temp gauge on mine and against the vdo temp gauge of porsche 944 gauges they seem accurate, eg the fans are supposed to come on at 95c which according to the gauges they did.
