When pumps start going bad, they can be INTERMITTENT. Running slow when cold, perhaps?


As a result, you can get a local loop where it is overheating, due to no flow- yet the motor is overall cool.


Just a WAG, but this isnt the old 'one pump, one sensor, just one big water pool' situation
This is the n62 engine. One pump that is belt driven. I replaced it about a year ago in addition to the thermostat. Sensors are still originals.
