My TD6 VF would kick in when it got hot and then stay on even when cold the next day.

When you change your coupling use genuine parts, I wasted money buying a lesser part, and had to do the job twice and incurring twice the cost!

I removed mine a long time ago and found the ff in the UK coped ok without it other than very heavy towing.

Same here as kingpleb, been removed for 9 months or so and no problems. However, I believe this is not good advice for petrol engines (the TD6 engine runs colder than a penguins dodaahs), so you are perhaps better off changing the coupling. A fiddly job, but ensure you have the right tools (a couple of viscous fan spanners from Halfords etc will help immensely.) .
