The Mopar stats (mfg by Motorad) can be had from Rockauto, and are generally well regarded, if more expensive than generic parts store units.

Pros: generally well regarded
Cons: more expensive

In case anyone else comes across this post, it was the aftermarket thermostat. I managed to get a hold of a mopar one yesterday and the gasket around it was just slightly larger than the aftermarket one and needed a little bit of resistance to seat it. Now my truck is getting up to temperature quickly and working great.

Pros: truck working great
Cons: aftermarket thermostat bad

I have an 06 Audi A3 2.0T Sportback with just over 105k miles; recently replaced the thermostat, spark plugs and coil packs. Other than being in need of some new brakes and a bit of cosmetic love, she's running strong.

Pros: running strong
Cons: needs new brakes

Recently had the exact same issue on a 14 a6 ended up being a DOA t stat I compared the shaft length on the new t start to the 2nd new t stay and sure enough it protruded out about a mm further just enough to not seal properly causing the over cooling after the swap no more issues.

Pros: no more issues
Cons: over cooling
Vehicle: Audi A6

I just bought one off RockAuto. I have to overhaul my entire coolant system and through some searching on this subreddit I saw a lot of people saying the Motorad brand kept failing after a few months. I didn\u2019t want to risk it so I opted for the Mopar thermostat from RockAuto for $35.

Cons: Motorad brand kept failing

The thermostat failed twice. Once at like 80k miles and again at 115k miles. The second time it failed I replaced it with an aftermarket one that had a metal stem instead of plastic. It made it until we traded it in.

Pros: aftermarket lasted
Cons: failed twice, plastic stem
