So I’ve only had the new addition for a few weeks. The past couple of 35 degree mornings caused me to notice how slow the truck warms up. 2 minute idle, then a 6 minute 3 mile drive, and still just one bar lit up on gauge. Heat is barely warm at this point.
I popped the hood and felt both radiator hoses, both cool, so I assume thermostat is operating properly. Coolant levels are full.
It seems that 4 bars is full operating temperature, based on previous longer drives. Anyone else notice this on their 2.3?
