80 ish is normal for a pug and the needle will move up and down a bit, its not like the VAG cars which go straight up to 90 and stay at 90. If you're thermostat was knackered i would have thought it wouldnt reach 80.________________________________________ Cherry Red 306 HDIChampionship White Integra DC5 Type R |

Also it idles very slightly from 900_1000 still thats why I wondered if it was a tiny bit cold still because if it was still switching between warm up phase and normal running |
