2005 2.2L Thermostat
Do you need to pull the exhaust manifold to replace this on the 2.2L motor?

No, just the heat shield.

When I replaced my Coolant Sensor a month ago, I didn't need to move anything to get to that, and the Thermostat is more towards the drivers side of the block than the temp sensor, so I wouldn't imagine anything needed to be taken apart to get to it.

All you need is a 10mm socket and a decent size extender. Pretty easy to do. I should have done a DIY when I changed mine

Never mind. The stealer-ship wants $125.00 to do it.... so they will be doing it. I don't have the patience to deal with it. I just don't understand why they put it where they did.

Lets see half and hour of work = $60, $40 dealer thermostat, $25 gasket.

Thats any kind of dealer for you, humongous price inflation of parts. Because "their" parts are superior to the parts at the local auto parts supply store.

a huge waste of money, when it only costs $30 for the part and gasket at Autozone, I would buy the part, put it in myself, then take that extra $95 and head to the strip club to celebrate my win over the dealership
