That's a good point Glenn particularly as there's evidence that the thermostat is also suffering from the effects of the "some kind of rad fix solution", probably K-Seal.

Hmmm, that's around 10° too cool so your thermostat has probably been sealed in a partial or fully open position. Your going to need several flushes using a cleaning agent and another new thermostat which should all be at the garage's expense, not yours.
