Hey guy's I have a problem... when I drive in the city my engine temp is regular and then when I go faster on highways it nearly drops to cold it's been doing this ever since the weather changed can anyone tell me what this could be... this car is really pissing me off theres also a gas smell when I get out and I just got my filler pipe changed that was rusted.

yeah the oil cools and can thicken, and not do its job efficiently. My old MKII GTi had a broken thermostat and when I got it fixed and rebuilt the cylinders had pieces missing off the walls because of the oil being thicker and running it on the highways and stuff. Its definately something to have fixed ASAP.
