Re: Vw polo TSI overheating
Is the water level running low?
My wife's car had an issue about a year or 2 ago - there's an auxiliary cooler which is kinda behind the bottom grill. This got pierced and the car ended up losing water, resulting in it starting to heat up. Thankfully we found it in time and managed to get it sorted.

Hope this helps.

Re: Vw polo TSI overheating
Good evening
I have replaced the auxiliary pump... Stil the problem is not solved... Funny part is that it only overheat when driving at a higher speed... When driving in a traffic it does not overheat

Thread hijacking is rude.
Yes decat will void your warranty.
