The needle going up a little above normal at the end of warm-up is normal. My 1990 still did it after a flush, new radiator and hoses. My 1992 does the same thing but ends at 8 o'clock as its normal. Probably has a cooler thermostat, but I haven't investigated. I never noticed this pattern in my k-jet or other volvos.
