moving temp guage.

Mon Apr 21, 2008 4:13 pm

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

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!

Is tightinging the nut easy to do? As in easy to get to the back of the cluster!? And how tight would tight be?!

tight so its nots loose. click on search in the top left and type in temp guage or brass nut, should find all the answers you need.
