Hi,
I have a ford fiesta 2002 zetec s. when i'm driving on the motorway the temp is fine at about the speed limit but if i stray above this is rises but if i slow to about 55-65 it drops back to normal, this has heppened at lower speeds as well. i have changed the radiator fluid. but it still happens. the fan works the heater works. i have been told it could be the thermostat or the water pump. Any help much appreiciated.

change the thermostat first. should cure the problem. sounds like a water circulation problem.
