Hi all, only had my car a couple of days, noticed today that the temp rises to 100 in traffic then shoots back down to 90, is this normal, I'm sure it didn't do it when I bought it, heard somewhere that there is a temp sensor, could it be faulty? Can't hear the fan cutting in but as soon as it hits 100 it drops back to 90.

Switch your air con on at idle. Does the fan kick in?
