runinng hot

mine has always sat the same , just at the half way mark ... a hotter day , fast driving may see it increase a little i suppose
 
Mines one dash above half...BUT even when the iginition is off it reads at the first mark! Bizarre!
 
Mine is usually just below half or in traffic half way point maximum which is good I think considering its 30-35c here on a daily basis.

mine too.... [smilie=hi.gif]
 
As said by others mine has never raised above the halfway mark - i know what you mean about 5 turbos though digger - had a 250+bhp one a couple of years back and had to resort to manually wiring the fan to ensure it ran @ low temps to cool the engine as it ran so hot
 
Mine sits just above half when warmed up,, basically the bottom of the arrow is resting on the half way line - assume its normal.
 
my mk1 with filter...used to go right up to the red in traffic on hot days...then drop right back down when the fans were on...really strange...

my mk2 (standard) never goes above half...usually just under..or maybe one bar over if stationary a while!
 
250+ bhp how many gear boxes did you go through .i had a raider with 230bhp and did three :( still got one in the shed in bits

A total of 6 in 5 years of ownership :( Was a mental car to drive on full boost though :badgrin: Sold the car in March last year as the engine and turbo had finally had enough :( A guy on the renault turbo owners club got a mint shell for not much money :( cry cry
 
^ Just got a load of COld H20, we use it for racing. Will fire it in when we do the 24k service.
