    Default Is this normal?

    It was cool outside, I didn't even drive the car hard just rolling through the RPMs but keeping it below 6k. My old SL didn't ever pass 90, but for some odd reason my new SL runs warmer...



    btw picked up a brand new LP570 SL

    Maybe the problem is coolant pump, or dirty coolant radiators inside.. I have the same problem after 7000km, have changed thermostat, but it didn't bring any solution.
