Title: Is this normal? Temperature related issue. (photo!)
Post by: panarasgr on January 16, 2014, 05:01:05 pm

Hello everyone,

So as you can see on the picture below the dashboard shows almost 90 degrees (should be ~85?) the climatronic's hidden menu shows 71? Also, 75 is the max that the car reaches, it never goes above that.

Can you please advise if this is normal? Cheers!

Gauge should go to 90C when fully warmed up.
I suspect that your thermostat is stuck open.

Sorry to hijack this thread, but how do you get to the climatronic hidden menu?
