Engine Seems Hot

[jasper65]

Popped the bonnet yesterday after a trek out in the puma and couldn't help but notice how hot the engine felt? with the engine off the engine was ticking away under the heat with heat waves rising from the engine bay..

The Temp Gauge generaly reads around halfway or slightly over when I'm driving, also have never heard the fan cut in since I owned it.

If your temp gauge reads half way, I wouldn't worry about it.

Must admit it did get a decent run and bit of a clear out :lol:. Its probably me being used to the Navara now which seems to run alot cooler! but boy did it seem hot when I popped the bonnet...

Thanks for the replies people k:
