Hey guys after consulting with a good source of mine I just wanted to check if this is normal. After starting my car from cold it takes the thermostat 3 miles or 13 mins to warm up to 85C in fairly average traffic conditions. If there is heavy traffic and the car is hardly moving the thermostat will take longer to warm up ie 15 mins. And if i turn the heater on straight away once the thermostat reaches 85c it will drop to 80 for a minute or so before rising up to 85c again. Do I need a new thermostat is this normal?
