Noticed my new to me 2005 E320 CDI engine temp is running lower than it should. It's indicating 60C in colder climates, and only got to around 80C in Florida here. I verified temps with a digital thermometer in the tank. I need to find the highest temp OEM style T-stat I can find for it. Looks like the originals may have been rated for 87C(depending on regions emissions requirements), but were possibly respecified to 90 or 92C. Pelican parts has the Wahler brand 92C T-stat for it, and so does KO performance:

Looks like KO performance with the free shipping is a better deal. Anyone have an other vendors at reasonable prices?
