Where is the Bora's water temperature gauge located?

The Bora's water temperature gauge is located in the center of the instrument panel. More information about the water temperature gauge is as follows: 1. When the water temperature warning light comes on, it indicates that the car's engine is overheating. You should stop and turn off the engine, wait for a while until both the water temperature and engine temperature drop before continuing to drive. Generally, the warning light won't come on unless the car is driven for an extended period or there is an issue with the vehicle itself. When the engine is operating normally, the water temperature gauge typically reads around 90 degrees. 2. The water temperature warning light is normally yellow. If the water temperature exceeds the limit, the light will turn orange and eventually red.
The coolant temperature gauge in the Bora is usually located on the instrument panel, right behind the steering wheel. Older models mostly feature a standalone circular temperature gauge with a dial marked C and H, where the needle normally hovers around the middle to upper range during driving. If you notice the needle approaching the H mark, it means the engine is about to overheat—promptly pull over and turn off the engine at this point, or the repair costs will far exceed fuel expenses. Many newer Bora models have downgraded the standalone gauge, replacing it with a temperature bar or digital readout on the trip computer display. Personally, I make it a habit to glance at the coolant temperature at red lights, much like checking my phone's battery level. A word of advice: never ignore abnormal temperature rises. A friend of mine once overlooked the temperature gauge and ended up spending over 8,000 yuan on an engine overhaul.
