How long does your CC SE take to get warm ? Mines still taking well over 10 miles to get even close to the 90degree marker. It's been in and they can't find fault - they might try replacing the thermostat. I've heard people saying that theres is up to running temperature after only 5 miles.

It depends which gauge you look at, oil or water. The right hand one (oil? Can't remember) gets up to working temperature a lot slower than the central one.

I really like the fact that it doesn't blow hot air until it's got some though.

Hi,

The Oil takes 3 miles to get off the mark, that's all you need - 10mins or so to get up to 90 degrees. Just thrash away. It's only a general gage of Oil temp. Touch the oil off the dip stick after a couple of minutes and you'll find out it's hot enough! :grin:

sounds like you spend all your time travelling with work. Will they give you a milage allowance and let you drive everywhere.

Just think how well you would know your car after travelling to Norwaty etc in it :smile:

Hey if my company paid the fuel bill etc I would drive any where rather than fly. I like flying but driving is much more fun.
