Washed my engine few days ago, but wasn't stupid about, i mean i covered everything that should be covered with a towel or a plastic bag. But now i a get dash showing engine temperature 1 bar above middle. This only happens sometime, and doesn't seem to depend on how i drive the car. If i just cruze around town, it will get 1 bar higher then drop back in 2 minutes. If i put the foot down, it will stay dead on the middle. Also i had a very slight leak from the temperature sensor in the coolant bottle, but Dough from Sports and Luxury said, that its nothing to worry about, just need to keep coolant level up ounce in a while. Not sure what could be causing this, blocked radiator or thermostat is castus?
