Hi - puzzling problem. Had a Fiesta for a couple of years and even in the hot summer the temperature gauge read cool at about 1/4 up the scale. During the recent snow I partly blocked off the radiator to get more heat into the car and it ran nice and warm at about 3/4 up the scale. When the snow went I took the radiator blocker off to return to normal but the temperature gauge has ever since stayed up at about 3/4 up the scale when it warms up. The water level is ok, has not changed and not even needed to top it up, and there are no leaks and the fan works ok.
Just cannot work out what could have happened in those snowy 3 or 4 days to make the default temperature rise from 1/4 to 3/4 up the scale.
Many thanks
