Temp gauge.
« on: 04 February 2012, 17:29 »
Ok as some of you no I been having problems with my clogged heater matrix. Well I have a tiny bit of heat from the heater now but my temp gauge has started being funny now.

Have noticed that when driving along my temp goes down but when I slow down say for a roundabout or something the temp pea back up to 90. It has also now started to sit bellow 9 alot of the time now. Wpuld this be temp coolant temp sensor or thermostat?
Thought my thermostat may be stuck open or something? It's a new one but it was a cheap one.

What ya recon?
