Hi,
My thermostat on my chrysler2.8 CRD 2007 is stuck open.
I got a stat delivered, but it wasn't the right one. Apperently mine has the temp. sensor integrated.
Does anyone knows where I can get a correct one.
Thanks

 

see here and here for the £10 quid 10 minutes DIY fix.

 

I can guarantee the "Renault thermostat trick" works perfectly well and still going strong after a few winters and like 200.000 km

 

Hi Qinteq,
On which pipe to you connect the stat?
Next to the stuck one or doesn,t matter?
Thanks

 

On mines, it's fitted to the top radiator hose, to the right hand side of the radiator.

 

Will drop a plug to my video on doing the job, in case you need a few visual pointers on it. Although I'm not sure if the 2007 has the same layout. If it doesn't take a picture of the engine bay and I'm sure we'll be able to point you in the right direction.

 

Thank you Scotsman and AndyB, Qinteq for extra effort.

Will report back whenI watched the video and have more questions or report back when I completedn the job with some pictures.

 

Fitted mod today, the result is exactly as described. Thank you all for your replies and mods.

 

You are welcome my friend.

 

Agree it works prefect , but would not recommend it in high temp area towing a trailer.
