Second thermostat in the past 9 months. Car has 22k on it. Down for 7 days minimum.

Mine in the shop right now getting new thermostat. Threw code P2181 Coolant System performance ~2 days after I noticed it taking forever to get up to temp (oil and water). Hoping this is the last electrical part gremlin I experience issues with. Last month it was a dynamic engine mount. Makes me love my 997 GT car that much more not dealing with a million sensors and (seemingly) crap parts vendors.

coolant temp indicator fault
I just had my engine replaced in April albeit 5k mile ago. lol and now I have a coolant temp indicator fault and engine control fault code. Has anyone replaced the thermostat and plumbing on there own yet? If so how difficult is it?

thermostat was covered by the 10yr engine warranty for me
