MD P4T SOLUTIONS.

The temperature gauge of my vehicle rises but doesn't to the middle. After sometime it drops down, and later rises but still doesn't get to the middle cos I know it ought to be static at the middle. This fluctuation continues throughout driving for the day.

1. What is the cause of this?
2. What is the side effect of this?
3. What is the solution to this?

Thank you.
