I have a problem, my 1.8T can't maintain normal operating temperature during normal winter temperatures.

I have changed the following parts 3 !!! times, but no difference.
* Thermostat
* Sensor G62
* Sensor G2

What could be wrong when the engine is unable to maintain normal operating temperature ? :sos:
( ....bad Thermostat you think, but since I have changed it 3 times I have ruled that out )
I have also logged the oil temperature with VCDS and I also think it is too low ( which also indicates that the cooling water in the oil cooler has too low temperature )
There are no error codes.
No leaks.


:sos: HELP !! :sos:
 
Usually unable to heat up is the T-stat stuck open, overheat could be T-stat not opening.
What brand part did you fit? I know many new aftermarket replacement parts can be faulty.

Did you sort this out already? Good to hear the outcome if so.

Engine is still running to cold, but since I have changed the T-stat 3 times I have ruled T-stat out.
AUDI OEM part.
No, I have not been able to sort this out, still having the same problem :sob:

Sorry to hear, that would be frustrating. Are the sensors genuine too?
Have you tried scanning car for any codes?
Do you hear/see both fans running on full?

Yes, the sensors are also AUDI Genuine.
Yes, I have scanned the car with VCDS and I have no codes.
My car does just have 1 fan and it is not running during winter.
....Only when ACC is on during summer :blacksunrays: to get cold air inside.
