I am happy to understand what the main cause of overheat when a thermostat is old.thank you so much ❤❤
Thanks for stating the size of the torx socket, most videos I've watched haven't done and its one of the obvious things people need to know 👍
Thank you for this information, now I can change the thermostat, at a lower cost the mechanic was going to charge me, Thumbs up :)
Thanks for this wonderful video!. I just got a thermostat issue for my car and this video helped me to understand the problem in detail..
Excellent video... not only how to change it but why it fails including symptoms... need to test mine in boiling hot water to see if it opens... well done and Thank You...
Exactly what i was looking for
top video first one i watched and fully explains everything
Very clear and concise. Cheers!
Thanks! Hope it helped
Thankyou, needed this! Just wondering now how to drain and flush coolant. I'm in belief that my head gasket has blown slightly so I'm going to try out the blue devil gasket sealer. Hopefully this helps. If anybody has knowlege on gasket sealer then please reply!
Muchas gracias ,por el vídeo por al ayuda .
Cheers 🥂
Great video, think mine is stuck open, going to do a coolant and thermstat change next week, cheers mate.
Good luck!
How did it go?
@@Gadgit83 It went perfect thank you the thermostat hadn’t been changed around 17 years so the bolts are quite hard to get out. However got the new thermostat in and now I am warm on my car journeys to work, thank you very much and have a happy New Year
Hello, what Torx size for the screws?
Hello, what are the risks for the engine to run with no thermostat? My car run in north africa which means the temp never goes too low like in europe
yeah think mine is stuck open takes over 20 mins to get to 60c think the fault code is 0115 astrah h 1.3 cdti
Thanks 👍 great video
Thanks, helpful..
I changed one to 71 is it ok
hi fella im just about to change my thermostat on my vauxhall agile 1.0. what torque should tighten the bolts to?
Hello
What kind of coolant can i use for the same car ?? G12( violet ) or any other coolant??
Best regards
I have a corsa 1.7 dti, and the temperature simply doesn't go up at all, even on long trips. It only goes up if the car is standing still for about 5min. Thermostat open, or could it have been actually removed by the previous owner to avoid the engine overheating if it already had such problems?
This is also happening to me.. it only starts to get hot and over heat when idling for to long
@@MrSwanepoel. well I solved my problem I replaced the thermostat and now all is well
@@DocDudix did you have a go at it yourself ? did you notice any difference in fuel consumption
how does it work, and what happens when it doesn't work, and why replace it?
Explains near the end of the video
I have a vauxhall combo van 1.3cdti and my temperature gauge doesn't seem to move. Sometimes on a very long journey it may come up to 80°c. Do you think it could be the same issue?. I was thinking maybe it's the coolant sensor?
Yeah, sounds like the problem I had. Would start with the thermostat rather than temperature sensor (I've also got a video on changing that - it's a 5 minute job!)
@@Gadgit83 thank you
Can a faulty sensor cause a no start or it to cut out while driving?
Probably not a faulty temperature sensor but a fault crank or cam shaft sensor could do, or ignition coils
Could be this the reason of no heat inside the car? A fault termostat reach very hard at 80°C (not 90) and havent enought force to heat inside?
If it was stuck open, it could take a long time to heat up inside the car yes.
@@Gadgit83 hi i solved the problem... Inlet tube was full of dirty, and this was the reason of cold air on heat mode, the fluid didnt goes through heat exchanger... After cleaning, and replace the thermostat ( 10 €) and 5 minute of work, every thing is perfect. Thank a lot
Ah great news, thanks for the info, good to know!
Great video managed to do it! Cold air in car though still
@@Jjules-zo5fr good work! Could be the heater control valve then... Haven't actually had to do that on mine so not sure where it is I'm afraid
These thermostats are flawed they cause air locks and back pressure how to combat this is to drill a 1.5mm hole in the thermostat this will allow the thermostat to function normally with no air locks
