Why does my Audi A1 Engine Overheat?

I've recently noticed that my Audi A1 engine has been overheating more than usual, causing it to shut off. What could be causing this and how can I prevent it?

One potential cause for engine overheating in an Audi A1 is a faulty thermostat. It is important to get this checked and replaced if necessary to prevent further issues.

Another possible reason for engine overheating could be a leak in the coolant system. Check for any leaks and have them repaired to avoid any potential damage to your engine.
