Yeah, very seldom these things make themselves better. I would be looking towards the CTS (coolant temp sender). I'm sure you'll find out tomorrow.

CTS is screwed into bulkhead side of the coolant crossover pipe, down on top of the engine block. It's sort of sited between the turbo and IC but low down. It's the largest of the two sensors in that location. (The other, similar looking, but smaller one right next to it, is the sender for the binnacle's temp. gauge, I think.)




Thanx Joz.

right the problem was the autobahnn tubro inlet pipe and not the water temp sensor and liek i said i change that a month ago the tmep sender woudl nto afect the ecu as that is not got nothing to do with the cold sart but it seems that all my problems were down to this autobann inlet pipe "bag of ****e" i spent three hours yesturday changing back to a standard one which i though was a good time seen as i have never done any thing like this before and dam there is alot to take of to get to this pipe subaru really need to think about making things a bit more easy to get to
