While the odds are sorta against it, I have gotten thermostats that were bad right from the start. Several that were not opening at the right temperature, and one that was "sticky" in that it wouldn't open up initially until the motor got real hot.

If you are using a generic replacement, how about trying an OEM (German) part?
