Default CGT tstat housing stuck?

This thing will not move both bolts and hose off . Doing a flush/clean of the system just waiting on some parts but hoping it will loosen up when hot. Anyone ever have this issue? Pretty sure this has not been off since AUDI put it on.

Be EXTREMELY careful when prying on that, especially if it's really stuck. I've read of guys cracking the housing by prying on it. Use some PB Blaster or some other penetrating oil and let it sit. I would suggest a rubber mallet on the body and eventually it will break free.
