This was the third in a row that did this, two from Fastlane, one from Performance....two were behr (germany) and a third one (bought to try a different brand) was made in France (I forgot the brand)....at $15 to $20 each, and being in the Summer when I did NOT want the car to run hot, this was very annoying.

Finally someone here had the same experience and suggested that I get a Wahler from Auto Zone, and the thing runs slightly above 80...just perfect. So now, I use one of the Behrs for winter.
