    If you have a quick stroll through the Tridon catlledog the D2 thermostat is the highest temp.
    Nothing else runs that hot.

    If stock is 92 when it first starts to open then at least BMW uses that in a number of models. Volvo specify up to 92 thermostats also in some models. Cheers

    Maybe your housing is too far away from the inlet manifold or the thermostat is faulty?

    Big test today, it's going to be 35c where I live so I'll let you know how t goes.

    I have put the inline stat back. This time I turned the stat around inside the housing so there is more room at the spring end for water flow. I also added a further 3mm bleed/sensing hole in addition to the bleed hole in the top of the stat. Will give it a day for the Permatex Aviation Gasket goo to go off then I will give her the coolant, a bleed and a run!

    Should run cooler now!

    I'm very happy with my inline stat mod. Recently went to Coffs fully loaded up, towing a camper trailer and the temps fluctuated between 82 to 87c.

    OK cool day but filled and idled and 84 degrees very stable. Increase revs to fast idle and 79 c. Will let it cool off overnight and recheck clamps and fluid...then drive but I think it will be good. Cheers
