I've heard the TDI is a Volkswagen engine but it may also be an Audi engine. Porsche, Audio and Volkswagen seem to be surgically attached to each other. The TDI never came to North America so us Yanks have no clue. I tried to pull something up onVADIS but my version doesn't support that engine.

I know that was no help but I imagine that it is different than the petrol engine.

A bad ECT sensor causes the fan run on problem on the petrol engines as well.
