Just got my car back from the shop as i was having overheating issues, now it seems to heat up more then what it should but not all the way on the heat guage, i put a new thermostat in, and also the shop out a new water oump in, what happens is ill drive for like ten or fifteen minues and itll go 3/4 up the heat guage, im wondering if maybe the shop didnt burp it correctly? Anyone know how the car would behave if this is the problem? Seems like before the car would naybe go halfway up the heat guage when running right. Also my sun roof stopped working today, is there a fuse or something to check for it?

Can't hurt to follow FBM sticky on burping the car. I just did it two days ago and it worked perfectly, although I varied his approach a bit unintentionally, which actually worked out a bit better for me.

I would open the cot cap only, run the car while squeezing the hoses, then follow FBM sticky from there. Note what he says about not letting it run too long and getting too hot.

I don't have a sunroof but believe the owners manual has info on what fuse does what, and where it's located.

Moon roof, not a sun roof.

Check your owners manual for fuse and relay information.

The o ring for the thermostat was kind of worn out if that would make a difference

Most places give you the wrong one.
