No it is absolutely not accurate, it's a dummy gauge, my truck will show 180-200 and the needle won't move but my real temp gauge will show it accurately, it's just there Incase of a catastrophic melt down, chances are a check engine light and a bunch of other bad things would happen if that gauge actually reached the top.
