Hi
i have a 165 sport diesel and my presumed problem is the main radiator does not seem to get hot even after 15 mins of running. I do do a lot of short journeys but was just checking it the other day.
It just seems to start getting warm on the turbo side of the rad where the two hoses go in. Across the main rad and the top left hose stays cool for what seems like forever while the header tank is toasty and does seem to push the water to the brink of coming out if you take the lid off. Cabin heater seems good.
Is this the beginning of a problem? the temp gauge whizzes up to half way after a mile or two and stays steady, just unnerves me for long journeys.
