vs
Thermostat OEM Audi or OEM Nissan
Reviews
Been running the 80 for a month or so. It works great. Car and Temps run flawlessly. Only difference is my average warmed up Temps are 85c. Used to be 95c
Pros: works great, runs flawlessly
Vehicle:
Audi TT
Part number: 050-121-113-B
When I stuck the key in the ignition, the temp needle pegged the far end of the hot zone. AAA towed it to the Nissan dealer and they put a thermostat it in for $50 or something and it worked perfectly after that.
Pros: worked perfectly after replacement
Cons: A/C not working
Vehicle:
Nissan
I finally got around to installing a new thermostat/o-ring/housing and coolant reservoir/cap yesterday. When removing the thermostat, I noticed that the bottom bolt was VERY loose... I had done the thermostat without housing about a year ago now, had never leaked coolant before... My best guess is that I just didn't torque it enough and it slowly loosened, but only when cold (just a guess, but would help explain why no drips when car was running on ramps) and in small enough amounts that I did not notice a puddle on the ground.
Pros: issue resolved, no coolant loss
Cons: bottom bolt was loose
Vehicle:
Audi TT
I had a 96 and have done that job twice, make sure replace the thermostat otherwise it's a do-over several months later because you tried to save $20. Been there etc!! Change the belt, tensioner, water pump and thermostat.
Cons: do-over several months later
Vehicle:
Audi A4
