Is this new behavior, or one you just noticed, or unsure?
Its the larger-bodied of the sensors sticking out of the water pipe on the top front of the engine.
I'd think accurate measuring of the temp happens only with the car running, circulating water.
Highway or traffic, temp needle should be in almost same location.
If it runs up in traffic, then the viscous fan probably needs to be filled with special silicon fluid.
They should run below midpoint on the gauge, but they don't overheat until up in the red.
So, like most cars, there is a lot of distance for the needle to run through.
Seems lots of 928s run too hot, above mid, but people think its normal.
So, just keep an open mind about it!!!! You might, as you check sensor (which sounds ok to me ) find a way to reduce the temp of the engine.
Also, does the AC work? Does the front electric fan engage ever?
