Hi Everyone,
I have a 1999 S70 GLT with 162,000 miles on it. I am wondering if the thermostat or coolant sensor is bad? The temp gauge heats up slowly or normally and then gets stuck at about 4 o clock position. Then it slowly moves up to the 3 o clock position. The problem is that it normally moves up faster. But lately its been slow. In the mornings I can see that car is still cold and warming up slowly. All that exhaust you know.
