Guys,

I have a problem with my VT v6, in the fact that it never warms up to proper tempreature.

The commute to work is 12km in Melbourne, and the needle only just gets above the "C" on the temp gauage, even on a 35degree day.

On a long drive, i.e 2 hours, it does not get much warmer.

I have replaced the thermostat three times so I'm pretty sure its not a stuck open thermostat, and yes it is in the right way. I have repalced the radiator once because it was blocked up.

When I start the car I can start it in the mode where the odometer display can show you additional informtaion and the temp shows looks about right, i.e not getting close to the thermostat opening figure.

The car also losses water, have done a pressure test but cant find any leaks.

Any ideas?
