Assuming these are good mechanics doing trustworthy work a failing water pump sound like the only thing left or blockage in the engine block. Do either of these faults occur on the Peugeots?

Just put a cone filter on it . Or clean out the air inlet pipes as they get full of crap and the car runs hot( a new clean air filter aswell) .
Use the ac to cool evern more . Mine ran hot (petrol) found a half blocked air inlet as its in a poor place .put short pipe to filter under the bonnet & it never goes over 90 and if ac is on it sits at 80c or less when moving . |
I'll try with to change the Air filter... will see what will happen 
thanks for your advice

Are you using readymixed coolant OR are you using concentrated at a 50 / 50 mix with water? |

Actually, what are the Blue and Green sensors for?
I know when I'll disconnect the Blue sensor, the temp gauge is not working and the 2nd fan speed is on,
but never disconnected the Green sensor

Blue sensor is temp signal to temp gauge.
Green sensor is temp signal to ECU.
