Coolant temp dropping while driving
« on: December 07, 2014, 09:08:20 pm »
Recently car hast started to struggle to get to 90 and sits around 70 degrees when driving and will start to climb when it idles, is this likely ti be the main thermostat or the smaller inline one, car still gets hot air

There are loads of posts on this, I'm pretty sure you need your main thermostat replacing
