Hi Frank and Maurice,

Just wondering why you are installing the thermostat and if it is something I need
to consider. Our S5 Outback with 912 S is running too cool in winter and my
solution is to cover up part of the oil cooler with aluminium tape. This is
a very imprecise science. On the weekend when I was flying with outside temps
around 8 celsius my oil temp was 85 celsius with coolant around 90. I'm thinking
of an in-flight adjustable flap but would a thermostat be a solution?
