Temp Gauge Dropping After Heavy Acceleration

Recommended Posts

Hey,

I noticed today that when my car is up to temperature, after putting my foot flat to the floor for around 10-15 seconds the temp gauge drops by around 2-3mm, then after lifting returns back to normal after another 10 seconds or so - is this normal behavior?

Thanks!

Worth checking your radiator pressure cap. Depending on how many miles your car has done, i've heard of this failing from a number of people. Or could be sticking thermostat.
