Peugeot 4008 temperature reading issue
Summary of the thread
A 2014 Peugeot 4008 was experiencing unusual temperature readings, a check engine light, and slow warming. The initial suspicion was a restricted cooling grille or a fuse issue. After considering similar experiences and advice, the problem was identified as a defective fuse causing the cooling grille to remain restricted. Replacing the fuse resolved the issue.

Good question. It seems to be worse in colder weather, but it's pretty consistent overall. Did you ever figure out what was causing your issues? I'm trying to narrow down the possibilities before I start throwing parts at it.

Yeah, turns out it was a faulty sensor in the cooling system. Given your description, I'd suggest getting it checked at a workshop rather than poking around randomly. Could save you some money in the long run if you're not 100% sure. It may well be the cooling grille though.

Thanks for the advice! Turns out it was exactly as I initially thought, a defective fuse causing the cooling grille to stay restricted. Replaced it for 52€ and everything seems to be back to normal now.

I have a Peugeot 4008, though I'm not sure of the year offhand, and had similar symptoms. My initial thought would be that the problem is something else, but I guess it could be the cooling grille. Does it happen all the time, or only under certain conditions?
