Temp gauge has always taken its time to reach its stopping point of around 85/90 and this when driving to and from work about 25 miles.
How ever get on the motorway and once speed is reached the needle will drop right back to its resting place, once of the motorway it will quickly rise to normal.
Is there any thing really to worry about surely there cant be enough air coming  through the grill to send the needle back to zero.
As for using water she uses none.
