my goodness... i hit a blunt last night and was driving home... i look at my dash... and i see this...



now i'm used to the temperature needle being around 50% and i tripped out parked up the car opened the hood and was feeling for..i dunno... excessive heat or something... everything seemed ok...

i was tripping out the whole drive home...

is 90°C normal?

 

did you hit the blunt in the car?...u prolly got the car high...

oh yea forgot to mention...mines usually around that high...the needle..

 

never in the car!

i dont know if people know off hand but nex time yall driving it would be nice if you could take a look an lemme kno what temp you car is running at.

 

90C seems "normal" for the 204. Don't worry about it.

Did you mean "bump"? Or one of those hollowed-out cigars?

 

lol the latter.

 

My normal temperature is 90°C, so nothing to worry about.

 

didn't you get your tires slashed recently?

where were you parked in toronto? I'm not parking there any time soon

and maybe it was your drug dealer...tsk tsk shouldn't be smoking that stuff when your life is good enough to give you a benz

 

this was in richmondhill... if you know where that is...

and ganja is probably the greatest substance known to man... literally.

 

Stupid..

 

yup I do


i thought it was a good place
:P

@ your last comment
From Kat Williams:
If you a rich n***er, got a good job, nice family then you ain't gotta do it.
But if you poor, b*tch, then I don't know what the hell you are doing if you ain't.

Now, someone with a Mercedes isn't poor...
So ima stick with what he said :P

 

lol class has absolutly nothing to do with smoking... im sorry to burst your bubble...

as a matter of fact rich people probably do more and worse drugs... lol

 

Thats because they can't appreciate their money.

I can.

And we are getting way off topic.... lol

 

indeed you apperciate the money...
ill use the money to help me apperciate life..

but yes on topic... im postin from my htc...
drivin in the rain... and i notice smoke comin out the front
of the car... is this ok temp is at 90 ish still...

 

its probably normal. depending on the temperature of the rain. Well it's 3 degrees outside...and since I'm very near where you live, I'm getting the same rain

So, with 3 degree rain, I'm pretty sure its normal. It's happened to all the cars I've had.

Also, the needle isn't in the red zone, so no big deal anyway, right?

I love driving in the rain, at night, for some reason. /random comment

 

ahhh just steam... makes sense.

 

yea that's the correct temp... don't worry the car's temp won't be off by too much unless you are literally holding the car at redline for like 10 min or more which is like impossible... they tested this car and it ran for 30,000 miles on redline before it broke down. THAT IS AMAZING!!! you never have to worry about temperature problems with this car(unless something isn't working properly)

 

Yup. 90C control point for thermosat is very typical.

Mercedes provides a linear temperature that gives real coolant temps. Many cars have unmarked tick points, unevenly spaced on gauge. These are modifed gauges, that will show the same nice 50% reading to make you feel good, but over a wide temperature range of about 140F to 240F.

 

It'll go down if you rev it. Seriously!

 

That's right where mine runs.... No problems yet and I'm at 20k miles!

 

wonderful... lol thanks for puttin my mind at ease guys.

 

As others have said thats about normal.

 

yup, same here

 

I don't drive my car until it's warmed up to that 80-90

 

It's seems a little high. Mine gets exactly halfway between the 80 mark and the next mark up. Yours is closer to the next marker.

 

mine is always there was well, just wait till u touch your fender closer to the headlights
OUCH, it get super hot! especailly in the summer
