    Hi new to the forum,just picked up a 2015 680 with the MX 13. Temperature will not get any higher than 125 and not blowing much heat. Wondering if thermostat might need to be replaced. Thanks

    Probably does. You're not doing that engine any favors running with the temps that low either.

    It's possible. You can take a big piece of cardboard, stick it between the CAC and radiator. Take it for a drive and see if it heats up. If so, then you have a thermostat stuck open.

    2 new thermostats did the trick.

    Thanks for the follow up. Many just roll on and leave the thread hanging.
