Hi all,

I think my thermostat may be broken. I am only getting luke warm air from the climate control and my car doesn't seem to be getting up to ANY temp (although I think the needle may be broken because it barely goes up at all).

The car seems to be running normally, otherwise. What do you think?

If it is, can I boil it to get it working properly again? Does anyone have directions on how to replace this and where it is located...if this is the problem, of course.

Thank you.

It is cheap to replace. If it is old anyway, you might as well do it and see if you get lucky.

yeah that sounds like the T-stat is not opening up at full engine operating temp. if your not a DIY kind of guy just take it to the shop and replace it, and also bleed the system and replace the coolant.

Thanks for the replies guys. I wish I had the ability to do this, but I just don't know enough about the car. Hopefully this won't run me too much at the shop, I'll be bringing it in tomorrow.

Thanks again.
