Today, halfway to work and stuck in traffic I notice the water temp gauge hadn't moved off of stone cold!
A moment of panic thinking the engine was about to spew its super heated contents all over when I realised that would have happened 10 minutes ago at least. Still, was an anxious rest of the journey.
I know I should have pulled over and checked but it was lashing it down.
Question is, where is the temp probe/sender located?
Weirdly, the outside temp readout has been showing high negative numbers from switch on recently. -12, -17 a couple if days ago. The figure starts to ceeep up, past zero then appears to show the correct ambient temperature.
Could the 2 symptoms be connected or just coincidence?
