#1: engine temp only reaching 80 degrees???? 2.0 hdi Author: SDK206, Location: Earth, most of the time!!Posted: Thu Jan 27, 2011 4:50 pm ---- Hi all, 2nd problem or not as the case may be but only having had the 206 for a few days thought i would ask!! The temp gauge only reaches roughly 80 degrees and doesn't rise any further, now on other cars its normally 90 ish is 80 correct for my pug??

like when a petrol does, if it doesn't and the stat sticks open it runs rich
do these engines behave the same?
i would assume once cold start is finished it wouldn't matter so much but just wondered if my MPG goes abit south
