Replace this Temp Stat as its cheap.
If you still have high water temp then-
Do you have an Old Thermostat ?
If you do, open the Stat and 'fix' it
so that's it permantley in the Open
Position.
You require this, as to just remove the stat
can cause water cavitation.
Run your car and see what the temps
do with Stat permantley open.
If car runs Ok, then purchase the Tropical / MS
55 deg stat, if not, then you need to test
flow.
Hope that helps,

Thanks a lot, Gorilla.
I replaced the stat using the OEM one. I bought that sensor but finally i did not change it because i had to remove the air intake.
Tomorrow i am going to remove front bumper, clean the AC condenser and replace the sensor n 18.
Also, i have ordered Motul Mocool aditive
Let's see what happens...
