When the car is warm and the thermostat has opened, taking care to avoid running fans, place your hand on various parts of the radiator to determine if there is an even spread of heat. Cold spots indicate blockages and therefore inefficient cooling. > and while i'm doing that should i clean out the intercooler ? Might as well ... Just squeeze off a couple of canisters of carburettor cleaner through the intercooler and leave to drain. Do the throttle intake too. On the 9000, remove the intercooler and spray half a can into both sides, then invert and spray again. Leave to drain. Refresh jubilee clips upon re-fitting. > could it be that temp gage is out of wak I'm pretty sure the 9000 uses the same principle as the C900, in that a temperature probe is screwed into the block (and therefore grounded) and a resistance controlled positive feed goes to the gauge. Unless the gauge registers zero, it's working. You could always change the sender, which will probably only be, maybe, 10 quid, euros, whatever, from you nearest dealer.
