Tstat has absolutely nothing to do with operating pressure or temperature. It is activated only if there is a problem with the engine which will cause over pressurizing and it acts as a security valve (like a fuse in electric circuit).

1st.... They are so strict in the inspection process that they would notice a resistor and fail you but not fail you for an aftermarket modification... uhmm, ok
2nd.... I said that the cap pressure at 2 bar is what causes wear and tear not the temp and by the way the thermostat has absolutely everything to do with operating temperature and the electrical circuit on it will close and open it even at operating temps to improve fuel efficiency and control emissions to a higher standard.
Last but not least I understand that English is not your primary language but I was impressed that you came out of the gate with the "I can't believe no one is answering my question" (insert foot stomping here) and then somehow figured out how to use a font to impart an eyeroll and European snobbery at the same time while needing help. (bravo)
The reason no one is answering is probably due to that or it could just be that they believe you have a soft fail with your thermostat and are hoping you will do more troubleshooting than whining.
I guess I'm not getting chocolate for Christmas but I wouldn't want to pay for it in gold either...
(Too soon?)
