Hi Guys;
Question about the behaviour of the temp gauge on my wifes 2001 V70 2.0T Auto. I don't drive this car very often & just noticed the gauge seems to sit very low during normal driving (20% or so) - only climbing to mid-range when in heavy traffic.
This happened on my other car suddenly & I changed the thermostat to remedy the situation as I knew that this wasn't normal.
Is this normal on the V70 or no? Is the thermostat weak link in the cooling system? The cabin heats up well on heaters. There's no errors on the dash, she'd been getting 19 mpg around town, I've been getting ~26mpg on mainly motorway runs.
