Question Question for the 3.0 crowd.
The temp gauge on my 2001 3.0 only gets to the quarter mark on days when the temps are in the teens or lower. This results in lukewarm air from the defroster, which is a bear on days when it's snowing or there is freezing drizzle as the windshield never gets warm enough to keep up with the ice. My E38 and before that my E39 both would heat the windshield until it steamed and it felt like I was being slow roasted in the driver's seat.

Is it normal for the E53 3.0 to run cooler? Or do I have a t-stat that's going bad?
