Hey guys.. Finally, somebody helped me to check the code... He said that the water temperature sensor is going down (which he explained is likely to be due to low weather temp in nights in winter)....
Now, if someone could let me know where it is located and where to buy it from?
(Also, he said that its near the coolant as if he'll have to replace it, some of the coolant might drain out)

Thanx before hand..

Hmm...can't see how that explains the coolant temp gauge going down, once the engine is warm the temp stays in the middle regardless of outside temp. But anyways here..

You won't be spilling much coolant so don't worry.

Okkk.. NOW.. This god domn car is showing attitude...
Its driving fine.. witht he temp gauze fluctuating b/w minimum and center. BUT at times it doesnt start..[:@]
Wat I mean is that I have to crack it about 5-6 times before it starts again.. It has done this 3 times now.. the last 2 being within a span of 2 days.
Wat do you guys think? Is it just the sensor that demands urgent attention or something else is brewing up???
Please help!
Thanks
Bix

I live in Durham, NC. I can't quantify cold but I can tell u the weather here.
It fluctuates from 30 to 70 these days.. last 2 days, it has been 30.
the thing is that my car starts perfectly in morning.. but lets say i went to the mall in evening.. and parked for 30-60 min. and came back and then it would cause problems.. I dont think it ll go cold so fast or anything like that??
Wat do u say?
