Its got a check engine light, so I get it checket out. P0128 comes up. Low Coolant Temp. So am figuring that I need to replace the thermostat. What do you think? Local dealer has one for $70.

That price seems pretty reasonable. I am getting my thermostat replaced too because I got an increased emissions warning.

Price sounds ok. It's an easy DIY described here.
