[QUOTE="Alex VW Heritage, post: 571889, member: 19109"] 70 Celsius is up to temperature. 100 Celsius is starting to get too hot. slow your speed 10MPH 110 Celsius deffo's need to slow down and maybe think about stopping for a while let it all cool down. 120 Celsius I would think about doing an oil change asap as that really starting to degrade the oil. I would say if yours sat at 80 Celsius in such low ambient temps (15 Celsius), its running a little too hot, might be worth having the timing checked maybe carb tune. But nothing major to worry about. Most important thing with a gauge is to work out what is normal in your van and watch for that, The gauge may be under reading slightly as the sump plate senders sit in the air flow. [/QUOTE]
