hi all..... just a general question..... What engine temps are classified as the norm......
after reading through some related threads im thinking that this thing runs too hot......
at a normal pace the car would run bout 1/4 on the temp gauge but can flactuate to half way even in cold weather....... now sitting at the lights idling the temp raises to 3/4 on the guage (this is when the fans kicks in) BTW its been like this since we got it some 5years ago now....
1. is it normal for the car to run that hot?
2. at what temp should the fan turn on???
cheers
