How long does it take your 300 to warm up? Now its getting colder i have noticed it seems to take an age compared to my other cars ![Confused :confused: :confused:](data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7)
Had it running this morning for about 5 mins whilst i de-iced the windows and even then it took another 10 minutes or so for the temp gauge to even think about moving (about 2 miles of morning traffic) Even when it appears to be upto temp the needle is only just in the 'Norm' zone![Roll Eyes :rolleyes: :rolleyes:](data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7)
Is this normal as i am suspecting a jammed open stat![Confused :confused: :confused:](data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7)
might also explain my 24mpg average as well![Big Grin :D :D](data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7)
