3/4

3/4

I had the 3.2 petrol W220 and yes, the temp gauge was about 3/4. I did get worried one day when it barely reached 1/4 thermostat had gone.

So its normal?

My W220 (S600) has always run at almost 3/4. I confess to being at bit worried at first but my local MB Dealership told me that it was normal and that they all do!

I thought they ran closer to 2/3. I.e 90-100deg...
