vs
Thermostat Wahler or Motorcraft
Reviews
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
The Motorcraft thermostat sounds promising though, never have an issue with genuine ford parts.
Pros: no issues, reliable
Vehicle:
Jeep Cherokee
My 2007 MKV 2.5 Jetta is still having overheat problems even after changing the tstat to a OEM (Wahler) and the waterpump to one with metal impeller, which works way better than the original.
Pros: metal impeller works better
Cons: still having overheat problems
Vehicle:
Volkswagen Jetta
I bought a Motorcraft thermostat from the Ford dealer for my Crown Vic and it ran about 20 degrees cold.
Cons: ran 20 degrees cold
Vehicle:
Ford Crown Victoria I
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
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
I've replaced my thermostat with a new wahler one and I have the same problem which is that it openes at around 70°C and cools my engine to almost 50°C, from what I understand the thermostat is mechanical and electronically assisted to open faster/wider
Cons: opens too early, cools too much
Vehicle:
BMW
