It's a stepper motor with no feedback ; if the motor cannot generate enough torque to step the motor and thus advance the mechanism, the ECU won't know ... it will just assume that it stepped.
On the S2 the dash temperature IS whatever the ECU thinks the engine temperature is, so if your dashboard is showing 88C or whatever, that's what the temperature is. So assuming your dash reads the same old temps it always has I think the IACV is likely candidate.
Cheers,

Yes, these issues could well be related.
It could be a number of other things. Easiest to diagnose using a live data reader rather than swapping parts.
I assume the engine is standard S2 K16 (i.e. non-VVC) model?

Good call. Will work out cheaper than replacing sensors by guesswork I am sure ...
