Hi all down on my holidays and engine light has just came on RAC read the code and is P0128 I know thats its a thermostat or sensor problem whats the best way to start looking on a 2007 2.5 V6 petrol engine temp seems ok thanks

P0128 is saying the engine is not quite coming up to temp. So, running cool. You may need a new stat...but carry on with your holiday and get it checked when you get home.

Take it to someone who has STAR diagnostic equipment, that will tell you exactly what's wrong & where.

Hi and thanks for getting back do you think it might be the temp sensor as the engine temp rises to 80 in about 10 minutes and the RAC man could not clear the code when the engine was not running and cold thanks

This will be a thermostat. Common on the m272 engine
