Where does your temp gauge sit? Coolant preferences..

When warmed up my 2000 Disco sits right in the middle of the gauge, never lower / never higher. Just wondering since Im new to the Discovery on where other peoples sit. It had a new radiator in 02 so Im guessing its due for a coolant flush.

Does anyone use Water Wetter in their Disco's? I have used in my Porsche with good results. Just curious...Thanks!

Sam ... that seems about right. Remember our temp gauges (P-Car 951) move about more so than other cars.

As best as I can recall it's about where it should be. A coolant change certainly won't hurt though. Since I now run Autometer gauges in one of my Discos and Dakota digitals in the other I,m relying on memory. FWIW, the autometer reads between 200-210F & 92-95C on the Dakota's. Never tried Water Wetter.

In my D1 the gauge sits a teeny bit under half. I know that the second it goes up by even a little bit, something broke lol.
