im ust wondering what the temprature guage shows for 3.5L owners? in my 3.0L it sits at halfway when its up to normal operating temprature

took my 3.5L out today, it was just under 3/4, im guessing its not normal operating temp?

Have you looked at the front of your car? Your radiator isnt getting any airflow hence its running hot.

mine sits just below half way... standard front end, nothing blocking the radiator..
hey simon... got your manual licence yet?? :D

Halfway allways :D

yeh i kno the front of the car is all blocked up lol, i was just wondering what temp its meant to be at

ll take the grill off n take it for a run after the grand final

and no, no license, just learnering (dont do much driving in the new car, just in mums civic)

Halfway all the way, regardless of coolant level (i don't mean empty though).

Bang on half way for me also. I reckon you need some holes in the front of that black beast of yours - that'll fix it up.

Looks good - but not very functional.
