Hey, just picked meself up a 1997 Mondeo and I've noticed the temp gauge moves about a lot, and gets quite high. I found a pretty useful page on common Mondeo problems, which says that they normally read high, so I'm not too worried, but when waiting at traffic lights etc I can see it rise to the 'L' in NORMAL. Just wondering what everybody else with a Mk1/mk2 model considers normal temp gauge behavior, with Australian weather?

If it were mine I would get it checked out by a reputable cooling system specialist. They will be able to tell you what’s 'normal' and what’s hot.

No probs with mine. Sits at about 90 deg and stay there.

Does the Mondeo have an intercooler for the turbo?

Mine had the same problem then it stopped working, it is a fault in the engine temp sensor.

Where does the needle now sit when operating the car in normal conditions, now that the fault has been fixed ?
