Sorry i can't be of much help. Maybe the install was botched I do know that this is a common problem though. Just make sure it doessn't destroy your thermostat.

I actually had it done from the dealer in downers grove. idk every time it does in they have to change it. its under warranty so i take it in when there is like 3 things wrong with it and I only have to pay 50 bucks but this thing is pissing me off though, I have had the car for not even 2 years and I have spent like 500 fixing it. another question if you guys don't mind, does any body's car jerk a lot when its cold even on a warm day

i would complain about it being done numorous times and tell them u want it fixed right... as for the "jerking" what exactly do you mean? like just cruising? is it bogging down when accelerating?
