how high is your car temperature?

[Sephanite]

i just changed my coolant myself and was so sure my car use to run 1 tick under halfway in the temp gauge. After the change, it is now running 1 tick over halfway taht should not be a problem.

what is yours running when it is warmed up?

 

[Beancounter1980]

Exactly half way

 

[IK.]

Exactly half way.

 

[DanSprag]

Mine too... right in the middle

D

 

[Tweed]

mine three... smack dab in the middle

 

[aquazi]

On a recent dyno it maxed out at 23 degrees... Pin exactly half way.

Dial exactly half way dude..

 

[peddy]

another half wayer

 

[OwenT]

Exactly half way

 

[Dav the wheel nut]

Just a tad over half way exactly the same as my Z3 ran for 6 years without any issues

 

[pvr]

Just under half way - but mine is an M so it is a oil temperature meter, not water ...

 

[Sticks]

Ditto half way, though the fan seems to cut in when I wouldn't have expected it to.

 

[un1eash]

Exactly half way here too although mine has a foot of air between it and the rad for better air flow

 

[Lucy]

Half way...

 

[glastoveteran]

Always been exactly half way on both coupes I've had

 

[WLH]

On my "M" the water temp hold right at 180F/82C.

 

[TH3R4POR]

On a recent dyno it maxed out at 23 degrees

23 degrees?

Is that cabin temp?

 

[SpaceCoyote]

My 3.0 si stays at exactly half.

 

[lamlp640]

half way for me also.

The needle should stay in the middle if the engine is at working temperature. My old E39 had coolant thermonstat replaced because it stayed open even the engine was at working temperature (the needle was below half way).
