A sad day for me and my baby as she was towed today. 
So my VR6s radiator turned on one day.. thought nothing of it. Day by day the radiator stayed on longer and longer after i turned her off. Temperature started rising from the normal 90 degrees. My windshield would always go foggy. I knew i had a cooling problem however i didn't know it would be so sudden. After Reading up on VR6s overheating i figured id get it checked out, obviously i didn't do it soon enough as the following day one of the hoses had blown, the usual steam was coming out and everything seemed to fry.
The moral of the story is that DONT WAIT... a simple tightening of a hose or a replacement can save you big bucks.
Thankfully the boys at Golf City VIC had it fixed within 4 hours of getting it, they also found another problem, the electronic water pump had failed causing the preassure to build up = BOOM.
