The Temperature

[trufflehunt]

On my display....

Computer says.....

"Phew.... 41 Degrees".

As you can obviously read yours, despite the warmish temperature, I assume sir does not have a type 'C' display?

I got 32 at about 6 when I left work, and the sun had gone in.

Very glad to have lovely cold air con -- and it's a good job midsmike spotted and fixed my bust radiator fan.

Mine read 31 around 6:30, (when the interior had cooled enough for the MFD to become usable again).

Amen to the aircon comment.

Sod you lot and your bloody working aircon i just use all 4 windows and torque the air into my car.

Mate of mine posted a pic of 42 degrees in the Stratford area on Saturday.

You should worry mine still won't play, spat it's dummy out 15 day's ago & still working on a fix. I would just be happy with a car that run's at the mo
But yes to the temp 32 @ work today & I'm a welder/fabricator/machinist/mech fitter

If this weather keeps up I might have to drop the set point of my Daikin unit to 19deg C.........



Wouldn't want it to get 'uncomfortable' at home later.....

[STALLED]

Oh no - it's hit 32 degrees!

Soft. All of you.

Are you drinking your own urine yet Joel?

I've not really been paying attention (my bro's coming next month and t' wife decided "we" needed to redecorate ) because I've been indoors most of the time, but I know it's been hovering around 30 for a few weeks now here, which is mercifully cool compared to what it should be. It's even cooler at night, so the plan is to shut up the house in the daytime (it helps to have shutters on the windows), only opening doors in the shade, and completely open everything up in the evening to let what heat's built up escape. Just now I'm sitting in my (paint covered) shorts, there are no fans going and we've not even thought about running the air con this year (yet...) The thermometer on the wall above me says 26 degrees.

I always found the temperature gauge on the Pugs to be fairly accurate, unless they've been parked in the direct sunlight (the black D9's sometimes says something mad like 60 degrees ). Dunno about the yoyo's though, I've never bothered to find out where the sensor is, most of the time it's ok but it often says something preposterous when started up after sitting a while, even at night

Must admit, at Pugfest mine read 39....... Needless to say sun burn and ouch spring to mind.

The E39 BMW's is remarkably accurate, being clipped under the engine undertray at the front corner. Mine's especially accurate as it's dangling down an inch by its wires and won't stay clipped in...

...clipped under the engine undertray at the front corner

I put an external temperature gauge on that stupid Ni$$an pick up thing because it didn't have much in the way of anything really. Unfortunately the sensor was hard wired and the furthest I could get the wire was between the headlamp and the radiator, so it was fine until the engine warmed up and then it became an extra engine temperature sensor I'm just wondering if your Bimmer's is meant to be on the undertray right near the engine, would it do the same

...Unless it's there to determine if whoever you've run over is cooling down, or not?

Getting a bit fed up with this heat
