   Right VTS is running weird when hot and its pointing towards the temperatrure sensor.
   
   
   Did a search through the FAQ's and it seems its the green one.
   
   
   
   
   However the motorfactors I went into today are telling me its the blue one.
   
   
   
   So just need to confirm.

   green one mate all the blue one does is tell the dials what the temp is and the green one is the one that tells the ecu i have one here if you need one

   From what I have heard they arnt too pricey so I might as well get a newy so I know its 100% good.
   
   Thanks for the offer though :Y:
   
   
   Going to try the local stealers tomorow to see it they are more helpful/precise

   Jokers there were saying it was £14 plus VAT today. But then again he was trying to sell me the blue one
   
   
   Old fashioned approch of taking the car to them and pointing at it in person needed I think

   on their system it says under saxo engine coolant sensors, blue or green
   
   they should just be able to click on the green one on screen and go from there.
   
   i just thought i get a nice discount from ECP so 7.50 + discount + vat would be somewhere near what your being quoted
