I dunno about your SRi but my HDi sits pointed at the 9 of 90, the only time it ever went higher was when the bleed cap came off and the cooling system emptied itself on an Autobahn :roll:

Just to let you know Jason, as I promised i would get back to you when I changed my thermostat, I changed mine this morning and its rising to 90 and staying there with no fluctuation when stopped in traffic or when driving around.
