Hi guys, I'm trying to fix my girl friends 2000 beetle 8 valve. It over heated on her. It looks like the oil cooler seal went out and we got oil in the coolant, sounds pretty common from what I've read and it fits the description(thick brown coolant).
We replaced the bad water pump and warped water neck, next will be the seal and maybe the radiator fan switch.
Some of that thick brown coolant was layered up on the inside of the radiator fan switch and I was wondering if that would make switch not read a accurate temp. and not kick on the fans?
Any input is greatly appreciated, thank you
In the pic the left side is dirty and the right side had been wiped clean
