I change my thermostat, but my upper hose is not really hot after few minute later.. why?? And now dont have heat in my side where i sit in the car
mine is leaking from the aluminum housing behind the thermostat and the block itself. is a common issue?? . again its not between the thermostat and housing itself, its the aluminum housing and block.
How to Change Thermostat for a 2013 Jeep Grand Cherokee Laredo thank you
Mine was leaking so bad that my radiator was empty while my reservoir was full, causing the engine to overheat. The crack was barely visible and I managed to stop 99% of the leak by sealing the crack with gasket maker. Nonetheless I am replacing the housing soon.
REMEMBER if you have OEM anti freeze dont use after market,, they dont get a long and might turn to a jell
Thank you SO MUCH for making this! You saved me $225!!!
You don’t need to drain the coolant. Just replace what leaks out while doing it.
Great job
I have an 2013 jeep wrangler unlimited JK sahara v6 3.6 automatic
How often does jeep need a flush and fill? I bought it from a Dealer ship at 91,000
Now it has almost 98,000
Can you please let me know Thanks do you have a phone number I DON'T have a computer or wifi connection just a smartphone
Great video, thank you.
Replace with OE Mopar part, don't use cheap auto parts store aftermarket part or you'll be replacing it again
Why was this so over complicated?
EVERYONE! Look for almost invisible cracks in the goose neck of the MOPAR thermostat housing. It took me FOREVER to figure this out! My coolent level was always slowly dropping, but I couldn't figure where or how because there was never any visible sign, just a very faint odor of coolent. (Problem even continued after switching out the oil cooler.) When the check engine light told me to replace the thermostat at the 6-year mark, I found red goo on the thermostat housing dried over almost invisible hairline cracks in the goose neck. (I needed a magnifying glass to see them!) The coolent was slowly leaking out and evaporating before it ever had a chance to drip.
Thanks. Love these videos.
Can just the thermostat be changed in the original housing ?
Why change the whole unit ?
Bob’s my uncle?
Thanks for the video Is it normal for the fluid to push out of the coolant filler ? I think I might of gone past 10 minutes it started to pour out so I turned the jeep off gonna let it cool down and run it for 5 more mins
The drain cock…. counterclockwise? Mine will turn rather easy clockwise, but stops turning counter. (Dealer replaced the radiator a couple years ago. could the replacement drain cock be threaded opposite?
Better remove that thermostat. That causes OVERHEAT AND WILL SPEND YOU MONEY
