Low miles,sorted initial running issues and thousands of odd bits and bobs,the previous owner looks to have 'had a go' at everything, now running sweet as,but..the dial shows the engine to be running cold (1/3 across the dial)a new thermostat,new rad.full flush the system,and bled carefully,and everything looks sorted. I have noticed that the exploded diagrams I see of this model shows the thermostat laying flat long axis horizontal at the bottom left hand side beneath and behind the radiator,when viewed from the front of the vehicle where as mine is located in a vertical position to the right hand side and behind the radiator,could it be that the thermostat has been reinstalled in the wrong part of the system and is diverting the water to an incorrect section,would this explain the temperature issues,or are TD5 just rubbish at getting/keeping warm or am I overthinking this one?
Any help would be really welcome?
