You should always use a new o-ring, especially if there is one included in the package you buy. The o-ring should not be placed loosely in the pipe as in the film, but should be placed on the sensor before installation. The fact that the old o-ring is larger is because it swelled.
the new o ring was a fake copy, had this before where they have made the wrong size, was too loose and water leaked out, i didn't get this on video and the original was a better fit. on my latest camshaft replacement video same thing happened, bloody new camshaft seal started leaking after fitting all back together, they sent a cheap copy that just didnt hold oil back at all so we used the old one as we did not have a choice 1000 miles later its still holding up, and the old o ring for the water pipe sensor has done over 10k and no leaks, this is the problem sometimes with ebay parts
After changing both my fans were still on unfortunately, after further investigation the wires had a break, this is also common on the mk5, see my other video
@@YKRECREATION Hey friend. Do you know if the Tiguan 2.0 TSI gasoline (2010y) has these two sensors or just the water pump? My fan is running non-stop.and I'm in doubt between changing the sensor or the module attached to the fan.
Hi, I have a SEAT Leon 2.0 Diesel (2009) and the fan keeps running for about 10-15 minutes every time I switch the engine off. A local garage said it was the engine management sensor but that the sensor alone costs £250. Would this be the same sensor the garage was talking about?
My mechanic recommended i replace both the sensors in my 2018 vw Passat r line (American version i think), i was just wondering if it is the same sensor for both locations? Thanks in advance.
Hello buddy, for your car I'd suggest going to your nearest car part store and asking them if both sensors are the same, they was on this particular model, just to be on the safe side, best to change both then it rules out both sensors causing trouble later
My jetta struggles to start after the 4th or 5th attempt. It always starts with no problem the first 3 times. My radiator fans are always on as well. A bad ect sensor?
My vw scirocco has problems starting when it is hot, can take a lot of tries to go. Starts first time when the cars cold. Could these sensors being failty be the issue? Thanks!
hey mate does this throw a code for specific sensor of the two? or is it same code for both do you know by chance? im showing code p0116 ect sensor 1 on my cjaa 2.0tdi so thinking its just the first one but i might order both just in case
I'd get them from gsf or euro car parts, if your from bradford I use JNS car parts in bd7 they have lots of stock also, best to give them your reg so they know what one is for your car! Glad the video helped, if your codes don't clear like mine then you need to check your wiring 😐
I replaced both, better to do both then they are out of the equation, but my fans were still on, I had to fix the wiring, check out the wiring repair video, both easy fix if your hands on, and it's also common for wiring to break, try sensors first if not then try this m.th-cam.com/video/FjPWzsZcltc/w-d-xo.html
Did you check that the rubber seal was on properly and it was tight? Also was it a new clip you used, sounds like maybe only one side was clipped in and with pressure it may have popped, try pushing down hard and then pushing clip in
My temp dial is going daft goes to 130 nearly then back to 90 and is OK at 90 rest of day when its saying 130 on dial the watwr is actually tepid hot i botte too is this a temperature sensor issue? Thanks
I have Audi A3 2.0 tdi 2004. it does not start well in the morning, or when the engine is cold. I changed Injector seals, glow plugs, and not working. Its the same. Can u help me please??
Oh my now that's a big boy engine 😳 no idea on them, what I would suggest is follow your radiator pipes or check near your thermostat, they are usually located around there
This is not what I have in a 2012 TDI Passat. I don't have the one at the bottom of the radiator. I do have one under the air plenum and to the left of the battery tray below the vacuum pump. If there's 2 I would like to find the 2nd one.
So can you explain why two engine coolant sensors, they must be providing information to two separate systems. One must be the engine ECU is the other for the dash gauge or the radiator fan control Does anyone know the answer to this question,if so please share this information.
My 2015 polo VW struggles to start when the temperature is hot outside and even the temp read in the car is normally higher than it actually is. Is this might be the sign of faulty sensor?
Good day. I have a problem with this sensor. Passat b6 2005 2.0 103kw. When the sensor is on and when the car reaches a temperature of 90c and when I turn it off and try to turn it on again, the car only starts for a short time and turns off. So 3 to 4 times, then I turn the key, and hold the gas to the floor and then it starts, but not every time like that. When it gets a little cold, it starts without any problems, especially when it's cold.
tried it a good few times just wouldn't seal properly, 3 years later the same old seal i used is holding up, sometimes with cheap parts they dont make them to spec, even brake pads these days need the edge grinding to make them fit
I just changed my coolant sensor on my 2002 vw 1.8 passat but when I start the car I still had the engine light on is that normal I use my scan tool and remove it anyone have any thoughts please comment
I change it today mine on golf 4 But Still no radiator fan cames on When gaauge goes 90 temperature THE shOp man says it was wiring fault bcz Previous owner was Using automatic gearbox and after he change alot Wiring left Bad connecting so i buy that sensor and for nthg bcz my fan still not working
@@YKRECREATION Just found that there are indeed two coolant temp sensors on my vw golf mk6 1.6 tdi. Always assumed there was just the one near the vacuume pump gearbox side of the engine. However there is a second temp sensor l wqas unaware of close to the fuel filter housing opposite side of the engine.
With vw connectors (works on all brands too) always push IN first then pull. I’ve had great success NOT fighting a stuck connector having pushed first!
@@greatcesarsghost so what you do is you push the whole connector (no tab yet) down (towards the part) and the push the tab in (disengaged) and connector up (up as in direction it comes off). A screwdriver works just be careful because you have much more leverage to break that connector and not much hand feedback.
They usually spin slowly at times, can you hear it actually running full speed ? And check that your ac is actually off, on some cars the button can be messed
Amazing work explained in detail step-by-step keep it up well done yk recreation! Never fails to disappoint
Thanks bro 💯
Filming and replacing , you should have double reward. Thanks alot

Thanks for showing that plastic clip coming out that holds the sensor. I thought it was a D clip and was wondering why it wouldn't budge.
No worries man
Very good bruv thank you so much for making it simple
Awesome video..! Seat Leon replacement a pain..
thank you
Thanks alot i was looking for the other one for about 30 mins and then i found this video
glad the video helped, did you manage to fix the fault
Thank you for your videos they help us all alot. Keep it up 👌👌👌
Your welcome, glad you could benefit from it
Nice video, mate. One quiestion, I read somewhere that one sensor is a 4-Pole and the other one is a 2-Pole sensor. Do you know which one is?
on the golf they are both 2 pin, what car do you own ?
Green one on engine block 4pin grey is 2 pin on radiator outlet
Nice video buddy! Are both those sensors the same part?
Yes they are, thanks buddy
They're diffrent part numbers green ones a 4 pin and greys a 2 pin 👍
Brilliant mate. Just one question, are both the sensors the same part number?
From what I know, they look exactly the same and do the same job so I presume they are the same
@YK RECREATION Nice 1. Just ordered both from Darkside Developments, only place that stocks them I could find. 👍🏻
No worries glad the video helped, Ebay sell them also
No green ones a 4 and grey is 2 pin
Pozdrav. Pitanje: Dali je prije promjene senzora potrebno izpustiti razhladnu tekućinu. LP. 5:30 👍
fair play to you ,,, i couldent find the seckond sencer ,, thanks ,,,
After changing both my fans were still on unfortunately, after further investigation the wires had a break, this is also common on the mk5, see my other video
Hi there mate good tutorial see if sensor is faulty would that cause the fan to go into warp speed even when engines cold thanks any help appreciated
Yes they will constantly run
Hi there Do they use the same sensor for the second sensor you changed .first one never solved my issue
Yes I changed both, but I still had to fix the wiring there is another video on the channel
@@YKRECREATION Hey friend. Do you know if the Tiguan 2.0 TSI gasoline (2010y) has these two sensors or just the water pump? My fan is running non-stop.and I'm in doubt between changing the sensor or the module attached to the fan.

These sensors are cheap, £20 for both. Tell them to change the temperature sensors first
I have some problems with hot start,which sensor to replace?thks fwd.
Vw 1.9 tdi
Hot start will be glow plugs or camshaft sensor
My mechanic recommended i replace both the sensors in my 2018 vw Passat r line (American version i think), i was just wondering if it is the same sensor for both locations? Thanks in advance.
Hello buddy, for your car I'd suggest going to your nearest car part store and asking them if both sensors are the same, they was on this particular model, just to be on the safe side, best to change both then it rules out both sensors causing trouble later
What code did you get ?
My jetta struggles to start after the 4th or 5th attempt. It always starts with no problem the first 3 times. My radiator fans are always on as well. A bad ect sensor?
try this if your fans are on, if it doesnt work then follow the wiring repair video guide, seems like you have pressure issue also
great vid buddy thanks a lot
No problem 👍glad it helped, unfortunately for me after i replaced sensors i had to fix the wiring harness as the fault re appeared
Where did you buy the coolant sensors and are they both the same?
Ebay, yh same
My vw scirocco has problems starting when it is hot, can take a lot of tries to go. Starts first time when the cars cold. Could these sensors being failty be the issue? Thanks!
Sounds like camshaft sensor not this

I'd replace both mate whilst they work in conjunction, plus they are cheap enough and will save you having to bleed the system twice
Keep it up lol your doing 😊😊😊
🙂👍🏼
Great vid 💯👊 can you give me link for the sensor to buy get them from pls was they genuine or like from Gsf car parts ? Thanks

Yes they were the same, best to order from your nearest car parts dealer
@@YKRECREATION thanks bro ❤️
No worries hope it gets sorted 👍🏼
Could this cause the heater to only blow warm ish air
no this is only for it not working on 123 fan control, is your heaters not warming up as they should ?
@@YKRECREATION the warm that’s it they suddenly get a fishy smell and blows 30amp fuse and stop sign comes on check coolant
Hi! I just did this on my Car and sudenly the sensor popped out in the middle of the road! I put the Clip on and wiggled it before and it was on good?
Did you check that the rubber seal was on properly and it was tight? Also was it a new clip you used, sounds like maybe only one side was clipped in and with pressure it may have popped, try pushing down hard and then pushing clip in
If you did as in the film, you put the old o-ring in the pipe instead of mounting a new one on the sensor, I understand that you had problems.
Whats the make of the sensors. Thanks
I bought any cheap ones and they are still working till today
Hi Wich one is for the water pump?
the sensor is for tempreature
@YKRECREATION I understand sorry to ask again but I saw 2 sensor in the video wich one is temperature??
Are they both the same part number ?
For this vehicle yes

One of my cables on my sensors was cut off could that be why my fan is always on ?
Yes you need to re connect
Hello are both sensors the same?
yes
on bkd 2.0 tdi engine where is the second sensor? thank you
follow pipes should be in similar location on the pipes or thermostat

What happend when temp didnt rise...this sensor is ? What will happen... thank you
If temperature didn't rise was the fan on constantly will prevent engine from reaching optimal temperature
Temp come to 60 and fan go on and temp come 50 and didnt rise anymore...thank
My 2015 polo VW struggles to start when the temperature is hot outside and even the temp read in the car is normally higher than it actually is. Is this might be the sign of faulty sensor?
no either fuel pressure or spark or glow plugs
