Is the management light wired in, if not start by doing that and checking for error codes?

Id guess it was the CTS tbh. Its the sensor with the blue plug.

Coolant temp sensor :) Look for the blue blug on the engine loom, iirc on the 8v its on the left hand side as you look at the engine, just behind the cam pulley.
