Recently the temp gauge on my car starts to go above normal (75%-or higher). Everytime I pull over to check it out, the engine and coolant temp always feels normal. I jump back into the car and the guage is back down to normal. This has started to happen more and more frequently. Also just the other day, the gauge shot up all the way and gave me a check powertrain warning and I haven't driven it since then. I have done abit of research myself and from what I can tell, it's more than likely the thermostat, but I'm not sure what the checkpower train warning has come from. Possibly related to faulty thermo?
