moving temp guage.

While sitting in traffic today with the sunroof open enjoying the 'warm' sun, I noticed that when I moved the fan from setting 1 to 2 the temp guague moved from halfway and increased slightly, then it went up more when I moved the fan dial from 2 to 3 and again from 3 to 4. Then when I put the dial back to position 1 the temp guage went back to halfway.

Anyone got any ideas on this or is it just a quirk of the car?! Never noticed it before!

Cheers!

mine does that :D

i think its because when you turn the fan on it draws warm air from the engine so it cools down slightly

correct me if im wrong

I think the nut on the back of the cluster needs tightening!
