    Temperature needle goes up ????

    My thermostat needle has been rising up very quickly now... I checked my fluid and its fine and upto the level... could it be a bad thermostat cuz it comes down after a while but for the past few days its been stayin up for a while before it comes down and sometimes i have to stop and let the motor cool down. It does not cross the thermometer limit but im starting to worry... so could it be the thermostat or something else ??

    How high does it go? A little above half way is normal.

        Do a pressure test to your system? When you idle does your temp go up? If you move does the temp needle go down? If that is yes might want to check out your fans.

            It could be your thermostat. Have you changed it recently?

              Replace your thermostat, bleed the cooling system and drive it.
