Cooling temperature sensor

Hi

Can you help me with a problem I have with a Skoda Octavia 1.6 tdi Mk3 2018.

When starting the car after been left over night, it runs rough/misfire for about 5min until the car starts to warm up then it runs fine , there are no warning lights on the dash or fault codes on my Topdon arti 600.

The CTS appears to be working  Ok 75 degrees, gauge on dash reading 90 degrees a difference of 15 degrees? would this be normal, will have to check car when cold (it’s my son’s car).

 

Any help would be much apricated

 

 

 

 

 

 

Can't advise on the rough running, but as far as I am aware the temp gauge will pretty much always read 90 unless the engine is far out of range.

My Mk3 vRS reads 90 from around 70ish degrees. My engine typically runs slightly over 100, but the guage always says 90. I have read it is a 'feature' to stop people fussing over the fact that an engines temperature is never constant and will vary depending on conditions.
