I have a '92 740 Turbo, and I live in Vermont. I had the thermostat replaced last year, when I bought the car from a mechanic and noticed it was cold and not heating up. I noticed today, when the weather turned noticeably colder, that the needle on the temperature gauge only got about 1/4 of the way up (it has been going to about the middle of the gauge). I'm wondering; is the thermostat going bad again? How long should one last? Is it a relatively easy do-it-yourselfer? Thanks!
