I just got work done to it 9/13/02 thermostat, water pump, and timing chain. When I first start up the car and drive about two blocks the temperature go straight to the half mark and work it's way towards the hot temperature. The car gets hot too fast. I have spent $600. 00 on this car so far and I just bought it. The warranty just expired about three months ago. It was a three month warranty on the car.
