Hi

Just been for my first drive in my 2008 HDI 1.6 and coming from a VW, the temp gauge seemed to get pretty high quickly. 20 or so mins of town driving before I got to the motorway it was over half way, 2/3 ofthe way to red(above the 90 mark). Though it settled there, that's a lot higher than I'm used to, never been anywhere near 50% in my last car). I switched the aircon off just in case that was making a difference. Is that the normal driving temperature you experience? Thanks

Great, thanks. I can enjoy the drive home without worrying about that needle now!

Yes that's normal

Perfectly normal and a bonus that it reaches operating temperature quickly as it is better for the engine, economy etc.
