My D2 has just started to do the same (or similar). It seems OK for ages and sits at 90C, but when I slow down or get stuck in traffic, it starts to rise. Get it out onto a 70mph stretch and it's back to 90C again.

But in slow, uphill driving it gets above 95C (but not quite 100). Both fans are running and the thermostat is recent - so back to the garage that fitted it I suppose.

Would a CTS fault show upon VCDS?
