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

Vehicle: Audi A3

Mileage: 168981 km

Since going with the OEM thermostat, my temp gauge has stayed pinned just below the middle of the gauge, even towing campers and heavy loads on hot days.

Pros: stable temperature, handles heavy loads

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

I recently changed my thermostat due to my temp gauge occasionally dancing. The old thermostat appears to be bypassed as theres no actual thermostat in the housing. After putting on a new nissan one and oem gasket i bled the system with a overflow funnel for about 40 minutes until i stopped seeing bubble. Also using peak 50/50. Afterwards my overheating problem has gotten worse i overheat in about 10 minutes. I tried bleeding again and same results.

Cons: overheating problem worse
