I wonder if i am misunderstanding this secret oil temp thingy - it appears when you press "up" and "econ" on the dash, doesn't it?  Thing is, i only get one reading - how do you guys get a list of readings?  Also, my oil temp readings are well strange - sometimes its reading "50" after driving the car for about an hour! :undecided:  couple of days back it was 0 before switching the engine off.  Bit like a yoyo.  Car runs absolutely fine though.  This didn't happen before the oil change though - it was consistently reading 95.  Any thoughts? Am i doing something wrong? Is the car ok? Is the world round :laugh:?

The left hand temp dial alters the main digits and the fan speed dial changes the figures to decimals. Sorry can't help with the rest.  :sad:

are you turning the middle dial to read "15" in the left hand window?? then the oil temp is displayed in the right hand window?

Thanks guys - will give it a go and see what the reading is :smiley:
