Where is the thermostat ?

Recommended Posts

hi i have a 1.8 16V corrado and i am having trouble locating the thermostat!

sounds stupid i know and i cant find this question anywhere !

have looked behind the water pump and from the top rad hose in the engine block ! does it have sensors on it ?

sorry to ask such a simple question but it is really bugging me :bad-words: !

thanks !

follow the bottom radiator hose to the block, it's in plastic elbow that connects the hose to the bottom of the water pump

 

PITA to get at, need to remove PS pump and associated brackets

you need a new o-ring and don't over-tighten the little 10mm bolts, better to just nip them up with a bit of threadlock on them.
