How long should it take the temp guage to reach normal temperature from cold as ours seems to get there very quick?

Cheers

Takes about 2 miles town driving , so I'd say about 5-10mins

Bear in mind that's the water temperature (about 5 mins), but the oil will take 10-15mins to really heat through, so be patient before thrashing it!

my water temp takes about 2 miles to get to normal but my oil temp takes about 5 miles to get to 80-90degrees C. Takes 3 miles to move from the 50 degrees C starting point.
