Thermostat MOPAR or OEM Honda
Don\u2019t listen to these people I have an 08 ex Sam problem replaced thermostat 2 weeks ago in 15 minutes problem is gone
I highly suggest only getting genuine mopar. Myself and others have had issues with the generic part store thermostats that were fixed by using mopar.
I replaced mine with this one and it has been running perfectly for 6+ months after my original one stuck open. I would not buy anything other than Mopar.
After getting a P0128 code and replacing the Tstat with an OEM equivalent from a parts house and my code coming back and then actually buying the OEM straight from the dealer fixing my code, I’m hesitant on what I should really put in my car since it seems to be sensitive to parts as well. I remember buying Tstats from AutoZone and never being a problem before.
I had the same issue and throwing a bad thermostat error code. I had the thermostat replaced and it kept happening. He said the thermostats out there are crap and they’ve had to change some 3 times. He did recommend getting a Mopar thermostat if I could. It was replaced and I’ve had no issues.
The OE version is the only one that works. Knock off t-stats will generally last a few weeks to a few months. The OE thermostat has been updated, pops at 203 degrees and lasts much longer than anything else. An OE thermostat seems to fail open. Whereas the knock-offs fail shut.
Oil cooler and radiator. I changed the thermostat when my radiator went. I would recommend using a mopar thermostat as I had two aftermarket fail on me
Car takes forever to warm up and seems to always be running rich, so I'm guessing either the thermostat or ECT, or both, is/are bad.
I have a 2015 sedan and I’ve got 192,000 km and owned it since brand new and I’ve had that happen and changed the thermostat twice, just make sure you get OEM Honda thermostat and coolant as it takes a certain type. Make sure you
Burp the cooling system of all air and make sure you add enough coolant to the radiator and overflow, it’s fairly common for the thermostats to fail
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.
