Thermostat MOPAR or Wahler
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.
I had a wahler thermostat and my temp range was 93-96
I got a Wahler thermostat once who was the OEM maker for MB, the only difference between the Wahler and the old MB one was that there was a spot where the MB logo was, on the Wahler one that logo was gone, looks like it was there, but someone with an angle grinder scratched out the MB logo so it probably came off the same line that made the MB part.
I have had a car not bleed properly/ run hot (but not overheat) only when using the wrong thermostat. Replacing it with Wahler fixed the issue.
Yep, these are a known bitch to bleed out the air, as well as aftermarket thermostat's not working well after replacement. I have seen some go thru a few to get one that works.
I changed on mine 2-3 months ago with a new one from Wahler/Borg Warner and now it's leaking through the connector.
I have experienced same with Wahler thermostat.
I’ve replaced it twice and it starts leaking from there in about 2000 miles or so. I’m willing to bet that thermostat is a Wahler brand. They are known to leak like this.
The wahler thermostat is either broken or its too cold where i live cause the car never really gets up to temp (or my temp sensor is broken).
