If you have been driving the car for some time, you should have noticed on many occasions that the needle on the temp gauge rises to a certain place and usually stays right there. If the needle, in normal driving, is rising higher than it used to, and staying there, you do need to get that checked out, yes, because that obviously isn't "normal".
It is normal for a temperature gauge to go up a little bit until the thermostat opens up and the cooling fan comes on. As long as it is not going out of the normal temperature range it is fine.
I would say temp between 95 and 97 Around 98.6. It is normal though that your temperature can be higher or lower. At night your temperature should go up.
Depending on the car's size, shape and parts, or its surrounding environment, yes, it is quite normal for the vehicle to experience slight temperature increase. But if the temperature gets worse there may be something wrong with the car, such as the engine overheating.
It depends usually a hybrid car such as a Toyota Prius gets up to 45 mpg highway compared to an average of 20-25 for normal cars
sounds like the thermostat is sticking
the wings go up by the cars computer ,it goes automatically depending on the speed and temperature of the engine, but there's a button on the center console that allows you to put them up manually, the wings are powered by electric motors.
police cars can actually go up to 200ks! wow!
yes! normal temperature is 36-37.5 our temperature goes down in the morning and goes up in the afternoon & evening
Many cars come equipped with a thermometer that reads the temperature. Some cars are made where the temperature reading comes up on the dashboard. This is so people don't take their eyes off the road.
At sea level the normal boiling temperature is 212 °F. As you go up in elevation, the boiling temperature drops.
Generally this means your thermostat is malfunctioning. Not sure how hard it is on a Kia, but most cars its relatively easy to replace.
Assuming that the surroundings are above the freezing point of water - yes - it is normal for the temperature on the thermometer to go up. It may still remain elevated even if plunged back into the ice bath since the thermometer has mass and can absorb some energy while out of the bath. There is also the phenomena that in some thermometers even when the temperature drops, the thermometer fluid sometimes remains elevated unless you "shake down" the thermometer.
