Water pump! That's what it sounds like to me anyway.

it maybe the temperature sensor that runs to your fan , as a make shift measure to get you away you need to wire the fan to stay on constantly.

if the needle stays half way whislt driving and you have no back pressure or bubbling from the header tank i guess its just the temp sender

follow the wires from the fan and you'll get to it.

should be either in the radiator or the 1 of the sensors to the right of the charge cooler

well if you bridge te1 and e1 in the diagnsotics port , it will flash a code at you in 2 separate digits , count the first flashes then a longish gap , then it will flash some more , if its only 1 code it will repeat the sequence if more it will flash a different ammount of times.

its a black box with DIAGNOSTICS wrote on the top , its located at the top right corner rear of the passenger side in the engine bay

write down the number of flashes until it becomes repetative then thats your fault code . a list of fault codes and how to check is available at www.st205.net
