As recommended, I replaced the thermostat and coolant temp sensor which solved my problem immediately. The car gets to operating temp and stays. Cooling fan not running. The install was exceptionally easy. You will need a torx driver, a #40, I think, which you can get at any hardware store if you do not have a set. You have to manipulate the thermostat housing a bit to get it up so that you can remove the sensor. You will need to top off your coolant as well. Maybe took me 30 min but could be done in 10. I bought the thermostat and sensor from my dealer to ensure correct parts for a cost of about $80. Next to removing the brake ABS unit, this is about as easy as it gets!
