    Hello there,
    I hope you all are doing well.

    I’ve just bought a used Toyota Camry 2007 (V4_2.4L) and I noticed that while I am driving the temp gauge starts going down, giving an indication of the engine not being fixed in the correct operating temperature and once I stop, the temp gauge starts going up and reaches the correct operating temperature (a bit lower than the middle).

    I assumed that it would be due to a faulty thermostat that stays open and does not let the engine to stay warm while driving, then I replaced the thermostat but it didn’t help and the problem still persists.

    I am writing to ask if any of you have encountered the same problem and may provide me with probable fixes for it.

    Thanks

    Brand: Toyota
    Model: Camry

    Do you live in a cold climate? Sometimes if you live in a cold climate, the temperature can drop a little when driving at higher speeds even with new cars!
