Hey all,

Make sure your intercoolers are working & you've got the coolant topped up;

It's warm out there today !! ;)
 
Is that really accurate? 47? Thats rivaling Indian summers!

Hehe I don't know, but it is VERY hot up here in Newcastle at the moment, & with the leather interior it's scorching !!!! The sensor is inside so it's probably up a little but it's still damn hot....
 
The sensor is outside, at the front of the bumper just to the passenger side of the intercooler.

Ohh and that heat is bloody crazy!

Sorry Brad my mistake. Jesus if that's where it is then that isn't even where the sun is hitting the car !!!!!
 
I see you had the fan on full as well...

If you tried to turn the fan down and you'll probably have a Japanese voice from the unit screaming out "you crazy man, it really hot, leave air conditioner on. You crazy!"

After driving, stopping, then starting again (after being in full sunlight) I have had my sensor over 50, didn't take a photo though.
 
Man you reckon that's bad - this was Adelaide yesterday...
