Thermostat 96A6
Ok,another day,new issues.I read the posts regarding coolant temp.and I noticed that is a common problem with the 2.8V6,runs cool,mine runs at the second/third lower bar after 30 min driving,same with oil temp.,just above 60.Bad thermostat maybe,I will change it this weekend(only 20$),where is the thermostat on this 2.8 engine,cannot see much with the cover on the motor.

Thermostat is located on the front of the engine, next to the water pump, right side, under the...
timing belt cover. You'll have to remove the rib belt (very easy) to access it. When you install the new thermostat, ensure that the vent valve is facing up (i.e., 0 degrees, top).
