It's the Coolant Temp Sensor is faulty, it sits mounted on the engine block close to third cylinder intake. The part number is Vo1346030. To access it you need to remove the intake manifold witch take about 30 min to remove. When replacing the sensor, replace the intake manifold gasket and do a oil and filter change since gas could gotten in the oil system.
