My cars thermostat shows that it is warming up just fine as in doesnt take to long or overheat. When i drive to my girlfriends house though there is a series of big hills and i dont have to even touch the gas for 2 minutes while driving. When i get to the bottom of the hills my thermostat shows alittle on the cold side is it possible the car drops from normal running temp? IT doesnt really happen at any other time then this.

Everything stock more or less nothing that would have any effect on temp. I no the cooling systems are weak but its only coming down this hill and my car only has 63,000 miles so i shouldnt really need new Rad or water pump or anything.Originally Posted by Tbone325

a normal running engine should not leave the 12 o'clock position. need to change your t-stat.
