Strange Annoying Temp Gauge Problem



  Clio 172
For a while i have problem with my ph1 172' s temp gauge. it's working on cold start until 3rd line, and stay at the 3rd line for a short time and then its going on to the first line step by step. Not a slowly movent, on the contantrary it moves gradually. I took some photos for this problem:

Cold start, it stands normally

it moves until here normally, and stops exactly that point

And then it moves to first line step by step in around 10 minutes and stays there...

And the strange one is, it is working very normally if I stop and start car again :)

After stop-starts:

I realized that sth; when ı stoped the car for correcting the gauge, it sounds like a click voice from behind the gauge....


Also there is no problem after the engine temp reached normally. So i have obd sensor and check the coolant temp with obd, if it shows wrong, the temp on obs is very normal, between 80-90 cantigrad. There is no another problem about engine working. The car is going normally, without problem.
ı suppose that it is a gauge problem not related with any sensor. Unfortunately i dont know who can repair the gauge or can be repaired or not in Turkey :(


Searcing the problem nearly 3 weeks, i changed below sensor, but nothing changed :(
