The OE temp is 187 & this one is 160. This will make the vehicle run cooler & could cause a SES light. The correct thermostat is a 523-190. Thanks for the inquiry. **Q: Will this fit on 2009 chevy Tahoe?** A: Yes should fit nicely, fit perfectly in my 6.2. **Q: Q: will this fit a 2002 yukon denali 6.0l I want to lower the temperature** A: The OE temp replacement thermostat for a 2002 GMC Yukon 6.0l is the MotoRad 456-187. If you are looking for a lower temp thermostat, you can use the 456-180 or 456-160. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ MotoRad 160° Thermostat *by B***Y on August 9, 2024* I put the MotoRad 160° Thermostat in my 2012 Camaro SS and it works great.
