Any viewers here have a prob with the engine taking a long time to reach 'normal' temp? Today was 6c outside and the engine took more than 25 mins to reach temp, Even when it has been below 0c the engine took a few mins to reach temp. The heater in the car isusually like a fan heater at your feet until the cabin reaches 21c, but today just luke warm, the coolant level is fine , at lunchtime I started the car and left it on tickover for 15 mins and still only reached 70 on the guage, the top hose was warm not hot. Is this a trip back to the stealers? TIA
