Coolant Temps

I know everybody is running different coolant temps out there but just curious to see what some other people's are mine are between 170 to 180 and another person said that his are 130. Is that low? or are mine high.

not surprised at all. When I had a broken cv joint, I had to explain it to them, and they didn't understand what I meant when I said it vibrates under load.

It's like anywhere you go... some people know what they're doing, some don't.

I was out there for a year with my car, in 29 Palms. Was in Palm Springs every weekend.

My car ran normal the whole time out there. The desert sucks btw! haha

Mine averages 180-185 cruising. Highest I've seen was 230, but that was sitting in traffic.
