coolant temp
« on: December 12, 2010, 10:15:30 pm »
Just wondering what your G40 guage is saying when
A)your sat still,
B)driving along at a constant 60mph!?!?

mine is about 87 sat still sometimes drops a bit but never goes higher!

and when im driving it is just above 70 sometimes 80.

I replaced the thermostat the other day becuase driving she would go below 70 lol, so now back up to above 70.

my friends S8 stays at 90 no matter what he says, just never moves. so i am wondering if my G40 should be the same or not??

probly be a bit higher in summer obviously but.......

Thanks Ben xx

Mines running a bit rich in this weather 90 deg after a good ten-twenty mins of constant 30mph  driving if sat in traffic ill put the fan on (i have it on a switch)  but when driving in the plus degrees outside seems to stay between 90-100. When its freezing outside like it has been loves it at about 80 degs. Despite the fact i have recorded temps inside my car at -7deg as my heater matrix got blocked so i just bypassed it lol
