All through October (I got the car in July), the temperature needle was at about half way on my dash -- I am in Philadelphia. Now since the cold weather came, the needle stays at about 1/3 and never goes above that. Is that normal? Shouldn't the engine temperature be always the same under same driving condition regardless of outside temperature? Could that mean that the temp sensor in the airbox does not work and does recycle hot air back in the system to compensate for colder outside temperature? Any ideas ? Any help greatly appreciated.
