Thermostat Wahler or MISHIMOTO
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
It’s now got an 85°c Mishimoto thermostat. Took it out today and got it up to temp and did multiple 0-85mph pulls. The new thermostat opens at 85°C/185°F. Under load the coolant never registered above 197°F!!!!
Pros: coolant stable, low temperature
Vehicle:
Volvo XC70
I wanted to upgrade from plastic and got an aluminum Mishimoto thermostat, but i didn’t notice that it opens at 180°. Can i get away with the 180° thermostat, or should i ship it back and re-order a different, higher rated thermostat?
Pros: aluminum, upgrade from plastic
Cons: wrong opening temperature
Vehicle:
Jeep Wrangler
Get that mishimoto garbage out of there and put a new oem thermostat in there. Unless you really lile pulling the engine out, to replace coolant seals and rusted rotors...
Cons: poor quality, causes damage
please remove the mishimoto thermostat they fail a lot, it happened to me as well.
Cons: frequent failures
Même souci sur 350Z
Le thermostat Mishimoto s'ouvre à 82° au lieu de 68°/ la réponse du constructeur → du moment ou la température reste stable !!!!!!!!!
Je suis énormément déçu de cette réponse surtout au prix et frais de douanes que cela comporte.
Cons: s'ouvre à mauvaise température, déçu de la réponse, frais de douanes
Vehicle:
Nissan
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
Forget about the Mishimoto thermostat. The OEM thermostat is way more reliable and does the job.
Cons: less reliable than OEM
Vehicle:
Mazda
