Hey guys first time posting here so please be kind lol
I was wondering if any of you have ever experienced this before. I recently purchased a dc5 after my pfl vsm ek9 was written off.
So I use the dc5 as a daily driver and allow the car to heat up before I drive it anywhere so the problem I'm having is the car will read its at temperature then when I start driving and have a bit of free road the car will all of a sudden start working it's way back to cold and not allow me to engage Vtec. If I park up for between 2-5 min and start the car again it reads middle of the temp gauge and will stay there for the rest of the the journey no matter how long or short it may be.
Is this a bad temp sensor or do I have a dodgy earth somewhere giving me false readings?
I was hoping someone here has had this issue before and will save me a whole load of heartache trying to figure this out
