Hey all!! I'm new to the this forum, but I've been lurking for quite some time. (nailbyt)
I am the proud owner of a 2003 MP5, but due to the 149k miles on this car things are starting to go bad.
The biggest issue that I can notice is the heat coming from the engine after driving to work (10 minute drive). I never get it over 45 due to a bunch of rural 4-way stop signs and traffic lights but it still manages to get pretty hot. The temp gauge stays about 1 or 2 ticks below the halfway mark and never increases or decreases while driving, which makes me think that I could have a faulty Thermostat.
SOMEONE HELP!
