Hey guys,

I am hoping you can tell me if I can replace the thermostat without replacing the entire thermostat housing???


I will replace the coolant temperature sensor (the one with a blue plug thats next to the thermostat housing but is actually mounted to the engine block) but thinking of also replacing the thermostat.
OR can I just replace the coolant temperature sensor thats screwed into the top of housing and ensure smooth operation...


Replacing the entire housing is kinda a lot of money compared to just a thermostat.

any advice and recommended retailers greatly appreciated.

Re: Thermostat replacement with or w/out housing

No, it looks like its integral. There is no separate part number in EPC. Thermostat including housing is part number 24420728.

Sensor is available separately on part number 90542063
