What Temperature does Your Cdti Run at ??

[DeanF]

HellOo.

Weather has warmed up somewhat over the past couple of days (Far to Gorgeous for work )

Now my coolant temp never really ever got above 80 & dropped on tickover, But today it reached 85 - 87. I have never seen it go that high, But !! I have only ever ownded the Car through Winter !! So what is the Normalish running temp through Spring Summer Etc ??

Thanks

Should just point to 12 o'clock on the gauge iirc.

85-87 sounds right and it's idenical to mine, mine might creep to 90 if sat in traffic, but on a run always 85-87. usually about the same all year iirc

[sshooie]

points to about ten o'clock

[Karl]

85ish

[DeanF]

Cheers chaps.

12 Oclock being 90 then, I suppose when you look at the spacings on the Gauge, 90 is Halfway & most modern cars seem to sit at that on their gauges & not move, I have noticed with Diesels though that they do tend to fluctuate far more than the Petrol equivalent !!.

Thanks

never seen mine at 90!! 85 seems about right but can run cooler in very cold weather

[lofty]

85 for me too.

[Big Sig]

85-90. Never more than that, just let it tick over until the fan comes on to check its working and note the gauge temps. All cars will vary a little.

and again 85 for me
