Do a Bruce. When in doubt strip everything off and check minutely

The software for all D4 & D6 engines will make the gauges show 85C once up to temp, despite small fluctuations in the actual temperature. If the temperature goes over 92C then the gauges will jump to that reading & then show the true temperature if it continues to climb.

So yes, 85 is normal

If one engine has a calorifier fitted then it may well take slightly longer to get to 85 as essentially it has a second heat exchanger

Thank you very much for this message, I wonder all the time why one engine slightly needs a bit longer to get the 85C...

In case of a little coolant leak, do I see it? Say the steam on the hot engine or any arrears on the engine?
