Toyota 2000 camry 102000 miles. My engine light came on the other day and I took it to autozone. They told me that the car is running "too cold". I have since noticed that the temperature gauge is alway low. I just bought the car last week and really don't know the history of the car.

Could be a missing thermostat or a coolant temperature sensor or the gauge itself.
