Wanted. Thermostat n housing
« on: 16 December 2017, 16:28:14 »
Before I go and get one, antibody got a New thermostat and housing, they no longer needed, pm price Inc delivery to hoof'land. 

Reason, car only runs at about 85'c, when it gets to 90' in the traffic nice n toasty, so think thermostat is playing up.

Sounds right for facelift V6? My 3.2 always runs on 85c.

85 is a touch low... 87-90 is normal, below 85 and the heater starts to draw too much heat from the coolant at anything above the lowest fan speed :-\

My 3.2 is also at 85, I swapped the 'stat a few years ago thinking it was too low, but it's still the same.
