You mean the temperature gauge on the dash is all over the place?

Hows the car performing otherwise?

My 182 had a failed coolant temperature sensor (along with a fair few other 182 owners) which caused the temperature gauge to go up and down randomly, along with the revs of the car locking at 2000 rpm. It broke down completely eventually.

Dont talk to me about temp sensors... Renault in Barnsley are refusing to fix mine... w**kerS...

Refusing? If its under warranty and youve not modified/tampered with it, how can they refuse?
