Good morning. I need a sanity check. I am in the frozen tundra of N. Minnesota and this morning it is currently -20 F (20 below zero). My 2012 JSW sits in a heated garage at 55 deg F.
My commute is 20 minutes at an average speed of 40 mph. During the commute I kept the manual transmission in no higher gear than 4th. What I noticed is the temperature gauge didn't budge from its cold position. I turned off the heater and it climbed a little but with the heat back on it went back to cold. Normal or not?
Years ago I had a Ford that had a similar issue and it had a stuck thermostat resulting in the same thing.
Thanks!
