Stant 45209 SuperStat Thermostat - 195 Degrees Fahrenheit

It's installed on a 2005 PT Cruiser. I did it the same time as I did the radiator, because of more working room and the old one was factory (124,500 miles). The install was ok. Not a lot of room to work with. It says you don't need a gasket, but my factory one had the rubber one that goes around the outside and squeezes into the t-stat housing you unbolt from the engine. It was a little tough to install it in the car, but I also used a little high temperature gasket sealant to be sure of no future leaks. Once it was all together, it operates perfectly and has about 700 miles with no issues. I highly recommend it to anyone looking for a good thermostat. I also strongly recommend anyone who is replacing their radiator to replace the thermostat at the same time. I'm an ASE certified auto/diesel technician with 16 years of professional experience.

No issues

This thermostat has been working fine in my wife's 2002 Chrysler PT Cruiser for the last couple months. It matched the original and operates as expected. The only downside was that it lacked the gasket. However, I've found this to be common from other thermostats I've purchased over the years. In my case, the original gasket could have been reused without an issue. However, I had ordered one at the same time as the thermostat so I went ahead and used the new one.

Saved money by installing it myself. Just watch a youtube and did it. No problem
