Product Description

This Cooltec Thermostat Housing 100/105°C is designed specifically for Volkswagen models, serving as a key component in the vehicle's cooling system. The thermostat housing securely holds the thermostat and provides multiple hose connections for coolant flow, while also accommodating a temperature sensor via an integrated connector port. Its construction ensures proper sealing and routing of coolant, helping to maintain optimal engine temperature during operation.

This part is compatible with select Volkswagen vehicles. It is essential to confirm your vehicle's model, year, engine size, and engine code before ordering to ensure a correct fit. If you are unsure, our team at MiMi Auto Parts is ready to assist with compatibility checks.
