2.5 V6 Stat
« on: 20 May 2015, 21:22:48 »
2.5 Thermostat - VX have advised today that the seals are on back order with the factory and can't supply atm.

Are there any known good sources of thermostat and transfer pipe?

Thanks James, do you have a link?

A eBay search has revealed many options!

If you are careful you should be able to split the transfer pipe from the thermostat housing. I've always managed it and I'm pretty ham fisted!  ;D

However a new transfer pipe will only be about £15 from the dealer so it might be worth getting one especially as they come with new 'O' rings.  ;) 

Depends how lucky you're feeling and how quickly you need the job done!  :y

Just to add, you can usually find a discount code for CP4L so have a hunt around.  ;)

Yes, Why buy one from the US....  :-\

I bought one from ebay recently and the O ring didn't fit properly so beware! The Wahler thermostat that I bought was much better!  :y

No issues with the Ac Delco one..  Genuine stat for 2/3 the price of a vauxhall sourced one...

No prizes for guessing what I fitted to mine... Transfer pipe is best sourced from Vauxhall at £12-15 :y
