Ongoing temperature issues - 17/05/2018 07:30
I changed the thermostat on Tuesday as the car wasnt getting up to 90 degrees unless in heavy traffic. I have just come the scenic route to work, a good 10 mile run and until I hit traffic, the temperature didnt get close to 90 degrees. When it did hit 90 in traffic, it subsided again once moving.
What temperature should the car run at once warmed up? I am wondering if the thermostat is faulty (unlikely?), but I dont want to start replacing it again if I am just being paranoid.
If I have messed up the coolant mix ratio (dont think I did), would that affect the running temperature?
