Thanks to all the replied. I am going to start with the spray down of the radiator, to get the bugs out. Then on to a flush and fill. It looks like someone has been there before me, as there is a Prestone "t" connector in a hose under the van. Should I use this or follow the Bentley? Then, on to the cap/and sensor. I have a great local shop that specializes in vw parts. I'll ride it out for a couple of week to see if it makes a difference. If so great :-), if not :-(, then a new radiator it is!! John N.
