    How are you reading the temperature, via ODB or the instrument cluster.

    Run the car in test mode by holding the set/reset on the trip computer while you turn the ignition to the on position (not starting the car), then use the set/reset button to cycle through the menus until you reach the Engine Temp screen.

    the temperature on the dials is the coolant temperature sensor and that will not rise as fast, only when you drive for some time it will start to rise.
