I don't have a mfa reading unfortunately as it's the economy cheapo 1.4  :sad:

OK well if 90 is the norm, my car's been running cold for the past 2 years  :undecided:

I've never had/seen another mk3 to compare it to though in my defense  :rolleyes: good to know though!

saying that our 1.3 polo was always a bit slow to warm up, i put a new vag stat in it so it definitly wasnt that causing it.  since you've done a stat/coolant and its now at 80, I wouldnt worry about it too much :)

Always a solid 90, unless i whack the heating on full blast, that'll bring it down.

mine sits around 70-80 on a motorway, in traffic it stays at 90.... hope mines ok.

Oil temp runs (at the moment in this warm weather) around 85, does go to around 90, but when on motorway it drops again to arond 80-85. hope this is ok aswell :)

8v gti by the way.
