Default Temperature acting strange
Hello.

Ny car always takes forever to warm up, the gauge stays cold for like 10 mins unless I drive it.

Today, after driving for 15 mins, it was still at 10% on the cold side. Is this normal?

You need to swap in a new OEM thermostat, they run about $25 bucks I think and easy to install.
