recently my Temperature gauge goes crasy.
In the beginning it goes wayup warm/hot and then it goes down to
normal condition,
Is my thermostat on the way out???:

Most likely ...yes. I can test the opening temp with my temp gun when Im there.

Could be a voltage stabilizer going bad; although, I've not seen one fail that way. Don't know if your Inno is wired like the English cars, but, if so, watch the fuel gauge, too. If it behaves the same way, then suspect the stabilizer.

Peter, I'm afraid you're stretching credibility here. Never has any gauge in any Mini worked "perfectly." They work very well in the best cases. They also work pretty well, occasionally, usually, or not since last September.

don t forget this is an "italian" mini the fuel gauge even comes with a red
warning light on, when down to the last 1/2 gal. and it is spot on.!!
I tried it a few times driving with red light on, and I made to the gas station this is 1974 technology
