i don't know about ur corsa's but i drive a 1.6 16v sport and when the car is idling the temperature on the mfd and temp gauge starts to rise slowly. If a idle for long enough the temperature on the mfd show reading such as 15c at night and the car temp rises to just over half!

When i start to drive again it goes down back to the normal temperature reading.

Does anyone have the same problem? Or is it because the sensor is placed near the engine bay??
