Operating Temperature Not Reaching 90
skard:
I should say that before swapping the stat, my temps were getting to 65c max on Fiscon.
This is what it looks like, though a GTI has a different part number to an ED30 (F not H on the end?)

Ah right hmmm. Got home after a 15min drive 6 miles ish and the app said 77degrees and the gauge 90. It does the thing where it drops when driving and sits at 90 in traffic. Never goes above 90 and just drops then returns. Annoying me now! Haha

Let me know how you get on with the garage.
Part that was changed, price, time it took and anything worth noting.
I really have to do it but I'm putting it off every time.
