Remedy:

In case of customer complaint, check the coolant temperature with the
Tech 2. If the coolant temperature doesn’t reach approx. 103°C it
could be that the thermostat is stuck in the open position and has to
be exchanged.

For Astra-H Z16XEP/XE1 and Vectra-C Z16XEP, radiator coolant 
temperature and the engine coolant temperature should be compared.
If the radiator coolant temperature rises before the mentioned 
temperature 103°C was reached the thermostat has to be exchanged.
