Hi all,
I'm needing some advice here. The thermostat went out on my 3.0T and I just pulled it out and found that the 3 plastic tabs had broken off (seems to be a common issue and how they usually crap out). Trouble is, I can only find one of them beneath the thermostat (or anywhere in the housing). I've fished around as much as I can and no luck. Do I need to flush the whole system now and hope they come out? I'm afraid it will just drain down into the block and get stuck somewhere. What a complete PITA and all due to some engineer's terrible idea of using a plastic thermostat.
Ugh.
