Re: thermostat stuck open? B18C
You might have a bad thermostat.
Or....is it that its extremely cold out and you turn the heater on full blast as soon as the car warms up? Because that would make the gauge drop.
A better description of your problem might be helpful.

Possible air bubble in the system, or low coolant level. If the coolant level is fine, replace the thermostat. If nothing changes after that, you have an air bubble.

Re: thermostat stuck open? B18C
I had exactly the same issue with mine.
It was the thermostat.
While I was there, I did a coolant change as well.
It took about an hour or so, but wasn't difficult at all.
