Always buy the Mazda OEM branded thermostat from any local or online Mazda factory parts retailer, this is not the item you want to save a couple bucks on, no matter how much you trust that ‘other’ brand.
I use them all the time with no issues.
I just got this done and Audi quoted me $2500 for just the thermostat. Mine was covered by the extended warranty Audi has on all water pumps leaks.
you can buy the OEM ones from Toyota still and they preform much better than the aftermarket junk in the US.
The Dorman ones on Amazon are the ones we have had the best results with.
I have a mishimoto thermostat with their radiator setup. It does kick on the fans on at a lower temp range than when the stock one would which is good. I had issues running hot on the stock rad/thermostat and haven't had any issues since.
Thermostat for Graf Aluminum Water Pump I have rebuilt my 09 Eos with this pump. It worked properly for the first week, then the thermostat started sticking partly open, resulting is slow warm up, but proper temperature after several miles.
I had a very similar issue. Radiator and Thermostat replaced after accident. 2014 WK2 3.6 V6 was overheating when I drove up the mountains in Colorado. The problem was the mechanic put a Napa thermostat in, then replaced with another napa thermostat. I bought a MOPAR thermostat and swapped it myself.
Every 6-7 months the cheap garbage scam of a brand Motorrad remains to be the only available thermostat I can access. I do the temp gun test, I verify my sensors are correct. I burp the cooling system. Everything. I’ve gotten so good at the job now. Every brand of thermostat I’ve tried in Canada is a Reboxed Motorrad. Premium to Economy. 7$-25 they’re all the stupid same. Parts source, Gates , Napa , Autovalue , “mopar” from my dealer. All Motorrad at different prices. I know of 2 they make, the standard oe 195 which is usually economy line. And the fail safe one they make. Both have catastrophic failures, either get stuck open, spring blows apart. Usually after 6-7 months they stop working entirely or the thing slowly stops letting the Jeep get to temp and I dread reliving the Motorrad Groundhog Day effect. It’s a garbage thermostat. People have argued with me that they make OEM equivalent parts and they never have issues but I’ve had nothing but issues.
I had to replace mine again after 6 months.
