Possible thermostat issue?

[CrouchingWayne]

Hi guys,

Recently when driving I've noticed that the temperature gauge on the dash will sit quite low despite my aftermarket gauges showing regular temperatures. The dash will go up to the normal level when sitting in traffic and the car is quite hot but will drop once driving freely again. There was a bloke on here the other day with similar issues and you guys suggested it was the thermostat? Is this likely to be the case here again?

Also, how much would a replacement be and is it easy to fit?

Cheers!

Simauto do the thermostat! They sorted me out top bunch of lads! Easy to fit takes about 20 mins mate.

I had the same problems as you have described.

Once I had replaced thermostat, everything was good again.
