Re: How Hot do Scirocco's Run

You're mechaanic should of not left any air pockets in the system. I am a 
mechanic and i know that you can't leave the air pockets in the system. 
Check the temp. sender and the voltage regulator behind the instrument 
cluster. the temp in Seattle has been 80 degrees and my car has not had any 
problem with running hot. Of course I have a low temp fan switch (60 degrees 
Celsius). HTH
