Replacing the thermostat tomorrow, how annoying is it to locate and access?
I see a couple videos showing the process, but they'e all already IN the engine. I can't find any videos, pics, or diagrams of how and where it actually is located.

Here is the How-to article on replacing it - it's pretty straight forward, but it is a rather tight place to work in - https://www.chevyhhr.net/forums/how-...l-p0128-24493/
Just be sure to pay the extra $'s and get the right thermostat -

I can't imagine why it wouldn't work :/

Do a search here and read a few of the hundred or so posts to enlighten your imaginatiion.
Basic info:
the rubber gasket on the valve part is what fails, the correct part has metal to metal sealing
the temp response may not satisfy the computer

I’ll see you back here in a few months , when the P0128 pops up again, the aftermarket thermostat’s won’t operate within the parameters the computer is looking for, I’ve tried Stant, Motorad and Gates, all failed within a month or two. I installed an AC Delco 131-158. It’s still working 5 years later.
