This is my first auto car so unknown territory  , when I do the brake test or even use the brake , theres a click type noise from the transmission tunnel , is this normal? Also the temp reading flashes ,will it stop when the temp goes up over a preset figure?

which temp reading and also what figure is it at?

[Dazzler]

the click from the tunnel is normal, its the safety lock disengaging which allows you to move the lever

Hi and welcome  

Not sure about the clicking but the flasing temp is normal. Starts flashing below 4 degrees I thought

If its a post 1998 car - the click is normal. Its the Park lock solenoid.

The temp stops flashing about 3C (or if you press the S button on stalk).  Its a warning that ice is likely to form

Its the outside temp reading, some manufacturers have danger of ice warning come up below 3 degrees so I assumed it was the same thing. Theres a few quirks to get used to yet such has not being able to take the key out the ignition unles the car s in p.

Only full size MIDs do it.  CIDs come up with a warning sign, GIDs come up with Ice Warning text, CCRT MIDs just pop up the temp..  TIDs, iirc, put a snowflake symbol near temp.
