I've been running cooler thermostats 180 deg for years on all of my 9-5's Not a single one has thrown a code.
With open sid enabled, during cool days on freeway, it`ll run 178-181 deg temp will slightly increase when going uphill as there is more demand from the engine.
On hot days it will run 202-206 deg and so on w/o AC on.
My fuel efficiency has never suffered, nor did vehicle cabin heat during winter months.
For my benefit, lower temp thermostat, at lower fuel octane rating I can run them with no known issues.
Cheers,
