There is a bubble... how big and does it matter is the issue. Fill/Bleed the system...see tha stickies. Check the sender resistance and that its wire is connecTed. Rrplace sender if no good. Next replace the gauge:

Ask site managers...

Basically yes, complicated hosing may hide bubbles; seek that from THE manual, it tells to jack up front... On ficcult cases I drive one hour 2000rpm or above, bleed valve and/or some other high hose loosened =leaking juts a little, adding coolant.
