First, make sure to check the radiator and all hoses for any leaks or damage. If there are no visible issues, it could be a problem with the thermostat. I suggest taking your car to a trusted mechanic for further diagnosis and repairs.

You may also want to check the fan and fan belt to ensure they are functioning properly. In addition, a clogged radiator or dirty air filter can also cause overheating. Regular maintenance and cleaning of these components can help prevent this issue.

Another common cause of engine overheating in Audi 80s is a malfunctioning water pump. It is responsible for circulating coolant throughout the engine and any issues with it can lead to overheating. If you suspect this is the problem, I recommend taking your car to a professional for a thorough inspection and potential replacement.
