Good Morning,

"19537 4C51 P3081 Engine temperature too low"

That DTC is indicative of a missing thermostat, a stuck open thermostat, or a cooling system with 100% antifreeze. It is NOT associated with a defective ECT G62.

P3 code doesnt exist but from what your saying there could be too much coolant additive in the system which means the engine is always cold

 

code reader scam and worthless
