Got stuck for about half an hour in very slow traffic in Edinburgh yesterday. First time I have been in a traffic jam since I got the car 3 months ago.
Normally it runs at just below the first "indication".
When pushed, it goes to just above the first one.
Yesterday, it gradually climbed to between 2nd and 3rd- still nowhere near the Red (which is from the 4th line).
Just want to check this is normal!!

Gents, thank you all for your responses.
MauriceC2S, I think you are probably right.
Today I left the car (following a run) at tickover for 25 minutes to see the result. I treached EXACTLY wher you say (the hour hand as it would be at half past nine) and went no higher. I could hear the fan operating around this point.
I will write you offline for a copy of your check procedure.
