First, I have a 2009 VW Rabbit with 165k and I have replaced both the fans and radiator because the ac did not work unless while driving and the radiator was leaking. Also after replacing the radiator the car is overheating now after about 20mins of sitting at idle in traffic. Could you give some advice on what it could possibly be? Could it possibly be the Engine coolant temp sensor? And secondly, I am now thinking about trading it in for a 2011 Honda Crv with 150k on the odometer at a used car dealership. Is there anything I should look for when inspecting the vehicle? Also after negotiating online I got him down to 6k and my car. I am curious to what your thoughts are. I also just want to thank you for all your help. Your like an automotive Yoda for sure.
The Volkswagen overheated you fix some of the problems but it could easily be a blown head gasket do my video how to tell if your head gasket is blown Scotty. And if I were you I would definitely get the Honda if it checks okay when a mechanical exit they are five times the Volkswagen
