it sounds like your thermostat is sticking... might want to get that checked out, also make sure you dont have a lot of stuff blocking your radiator. i.e. grass, leaves, etc

+1 sounds like a sticking stat...

Might as well get the Nismo thermostat...

[issam350z]

it didn't work, still the dealership has no idea what is wrong with my car.

[joe603]

you replaced the thermostat?

"and changing the fan, hoses, termostate, sensores"

He stated he changed it in the original post.....well...I'm guessing that's what "termostate" really means....

SO

the dealer ship has changed the Thermostate, hoses, sensors, but they told me the car still getting warm, and now they waiting for the part called the Thermostate housing, according to them that may be the problem, but not sure yet,

The thermostat is built into the thermostat housing on Z's.... weird that they are claiming to have replaced one and not the other.

Have you checked to see if the heat works? Z's are odd about air in the system, but I would hope a dealership would know how to handle that.

wow thats wierd, I'm gonna guess it cost a lot more than a normal drop in thermostat, sometimes they need to stop "Improving" things and let well enough be

Thats why the Nismo one cost $118...
