gaano kataas ang temp gauge nyo?

parang mababa pa ata sayo HBoy..hehehe..normal sa akin ang 90-95deg...:D ..nung una..pagna-traffic ako...tumutulo talaga pawis ko..(sa nerbiyos!) pakiramdam ko sasabog na oto ko! ..sanayan lang yan:D

yun starex ko...normal lang (nasa kalahati).

Bumaba yung engine temp ko since na gumamit ako ng Caltex Extendend Life Coolant. Don't know why? Ok lang ba iyon?

[lmp]

patanong din po yong temp ko hindi sya umaabot ng 25% madalas hanggang sa may letter C lang sya me problema po ba dito? sa tingin ko kasi parang hindi normal yon e considering na diesel pa sya 2000 adventure glx po ride ko. 2x na namin sya pinatingnan 2 different mechanics sabi wala daw problema maganda lang daw cooling system how true po ba? para kasing duda ako e...

Ok lang yan. This is the same coolant I have been using for some time na. Mas bumaba yung engine temperature ko using this.

Ok lang yan. The same thing happens to me. Usually, the temp gauge is around 25% or less during cloudly days, but nearly half pag really hot days stuck in traffic. The lowest it went was hanggang letter C, when I was driving around Tagaytay.

Before, my temp gauge was ALWAYS near the 1/2 mark. This changed when I replaced the water pump (60K odo). The engine compartment feels less hot.

Less heat = Less wear and tear = better performance, IMHO!

May I also ask what coolant and engine oil you use?

[lmp]

mr. dieseler oil is shell rimula while prestone for coolant mga "ordinary" brands lang

kaya kasi ako nagdududa (btw, 2 months pa lang sa amin itong ride) kasi kahit ang init-init na ng hood wala pa sa 25% ang temp nya once lang sya lumampas ng 25%, & di pa sya umabot ng 50%, ng bumiyahe kami for pangasinan pero the rest always just at the "c" level lang.

pero since you assured me na ok lang bilib naman ako sa mga expertise ng mga tsikoteers e di na ako magdududa.

thanx

mga sir question po...

what if di naman lumalampas sa half ng temp. gauge, pero nagbabawas siya ng tubig, almost everyday nagdadagdag ako ng tubig, normal po ba ito, wala naman tulo yung radiator, bago mga hose and kaka flushing lang, may coolant din, pero nababawasan parin yung tubig specially pag na traffic...tnx...

[jim]

jhongz normal lang yan :-)

Boss;

Check mo yung radiator cap mo baka may singaw na. Nangyari din sa akin yan sira na pala radiator cap ko.

my 2 cents.

[theveed]

Hens: Supercharged engine mo mainit talaga yan...

Akin usually nasa 78 or so... kung traffic mga 85 siguro...

Pero nung may singaw at tulo yung radiator, 100 pataas kung tumatagas tubig hehe.

hmm. i'm beginning to think na mas malamig nga operating temp ng diesel sa gas.. hehe.. when i had my MB gasser.. it never went down 90deg unless malamig panahon.. comparing my gasser sa diesel wagon ko.. the wagon is running at a cooler temp in all ocassions compared to my gasser.

[BlueBimmer]

akin * 12'oclock position..maybe 1mm lng lampas sa gitna

[pissword]

bakit po sa inyo umaakyat baba...? yun rav namin, hindi ko pa nakitang nagbago ang normal running temp niya... forever nang nasa gitna talaga siya, umuulan, mainit, gabi, umaga kahit saan.. kahit almost hulday umaandar.

The engine coolant temp indicated on dash panel is a function also of the accuracy of the temp sensing unit. I replaced one for my ride as I'm seeing the temp way below the halfway mark on summer day (approx 1/4) which is very unusual. After I replaced it (P1K for pajero) its now a tad below halfway mark. Just make sure you are getting the correct read-out as this sensing unit is subject to wear and tear also, although I'm not sure if the indicated temp of deteriorating sensor is more inclined to report lower temp than higher temp.

[doc eric]

don't compare the thermometers...they only show "relative temperature" readings.... even the same brands may have slight deviations.....

to get absolute temperature, you need a "true thermometer"....

[ram]

my temp gauge is usually a little below the halfway mark and increases slightly after prolonged driving in hot weather.

[mhelskie]

sa kin constant sa gitna, d ko pa nakitang nagbago

[HBOY]

most newer cars dont have the "dynamic" temp gauge... kaya if your car is healthy.. it stays more or less around the half-way mark.

[mistah]

mine is a bit below the middle. i'm on 70% prestone and 30 distilled water.

[geode]

my temps have always been just below the halfway mark ... never seen it rise higher than that ...
