that sounds OK, have you read the owners manual?
no just bought car other day,will have to get one,thanks i dont need to worry about that now
normal, if it's off blue it's up to temp.
Wish they'd fit gauges though - by the time the red idiot light comes on the engine is screwed....
Effectively, gauges fitted to modern cars are no more use than a set of three lights.
The ECU modifies the temperature sender signal so that the needle stays in the middle over a very wide temperature range. It could be replaced by a tri-state LED.
