Oh - is the SVX suppose to run so hot? Like the temperature gauge is below half (normal) but under the hood it is absolutely BAKING.....everything is very hot to the touch. But the trans fluid doesn't smell burnt or like it's cooking at all........and looks to be very clean and free of debris. I'm guessing SVX's run hot?


The temp gauge should "ride the waves" at all times when warmed up.
I'd say ALL cars are very hot to the senses when the hood's popped after a summer run.
