OK thanks for clearing that up I thought I have changed the wrong sensor. Maybe my problem is not linked to the temp sensor then, the guage has always worked fine. Only two wires to the sensor if I disconect it the gauge does not work. Any other possible causes for rough running when hot?

Hi I have managed to sort out the thermstat housing. After all this the sensor that is fitted to the Thermostat housing is for the temp gauge. I need to replace the sensor that tells the ecu the temp of the engine. Does anyone know where to find this?? Thanks Shane

I have managed to break the Thermostat housing when removing the sensor. That is the reason I was struggling to re fit. The obvious next question is best place to find one. ts a 1.9TD on a 2003 palte. Thanks Shane

Hi I previously posted regarding an issue with my 1.9TD Alhambra 2003 plate but cannot find my origonal post. It run almost like 3 Cylinders when hot. I am attempting to change the coolant temp sensor. I removed it last weekend but had trouble trying to find the part. I collected the part this morning but am having difficulty fitting the plastic clip. Dose any have any tips or images of how the clip retains the sensor in the hole. Thanks in advance for your help.

Sorry Dave thought you name was Mike.

Hi Mike Thanks for the responce. I was hopeing to fix at home without the need to visit a dealer at this stage. You mention a memory test is that something the garage would do. Apologies for coming across as thick. I have been reading a few reports of the ECT Coolant sensor or the wiring to the Injectors. Help appreciated.

Hi I have a 1.9td Seat Alhambra on a 2003 Plate. It has developed a mis fire when up to temperature. It sounds like running on 3 Cylinders but only when warm, its fine for first 5 miles approx. I have read lots of possible issues just wondered if anyone could give me some advise. I havereplaced the Fue Filer and also put a Fuel System Cleaner through the system. It appears worse under load for example at take off and up hills. Thanks in advance for your help.
