vs
Thermostat Wahler or Duralast
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.
Pros: fixed bleeding issue
Vehicle:
Porsche
A proper Wahler thermostat is what solved it.
Pros: solved issue
Vehicle:
Porsche
I just put a new Waller in every 8 to 10 years when it comes time to redo the cooling system. Never had a leaking or stuck thermostat but we do live in Southern California, so I think things tend to last longer Here
Pros: no leaking, no sticking, long lasting
I've had a Wahler fitted for 1.5yrs and everything's ok so far
Pros: everything ok
I've used Autozone's Duralast thermostats without issue on my old Integra.
Pros: reliable performance
Vehicle:
Acura Integra
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.
Cons: leaks after 2000 miles
Vehicle:
BMW
Mileage: 3218 km
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).
Cons: never gets up to temp
Vehicle:
BMW
I warranty my shitty duralast thermostat (I hate duralast but when I gotta get to work the next day it works in a pinch it works) now after a 5 am swap I’m good to go
Pros: works in a pinch
Cons: shitty quality
Vehicle:
BMW
I’ve changed mine once already recently (it was a duralast thermostat because I’m stupid, that might be the current issue) and it’s still acting similar and trending towards overheating at 60+ mph even with the radiator fans on high. The radiator in lines are frigid after it’s been running at mid/high temps and the radiator out lines are hot
Cons: trending towards overheating, acting similar
Vehicle:
Ford
The Wahler one's are rubbish. Did the same after my fucking brand new Wahner DID NOT work....
Cons: rubbish quality, did not work
Vehicle:
BMW
