CLK Over cooling?

[jblackCLK]

How long should a 320 CLK take to get to normal operating temperature?

Mine seems to take forever. It takes between 10 to 15 mins to reach just over half way on the temp gauge. Although once its there its stays there so no overheating.

Thermostat stuck open perhaps?
My CLk55 used to get warm within a few minutes.
Mind you, with 5.5 litres burning I guess it would!
Mac.

Check the top radiator hose from stating from cold. It should remain cold and as the thermostat reaches opening temperature it will start to get hot.

Also if you take a run down the motorway and your temperature starts to dip below 90, your thermostat is stuck open.

down the motorway my temperature is stuck on 80 as at any other time.
in traffic it creeps up to about 95 until i get clear space then it is back to 80
