Frequently asked questions

What does the Thermostat (532453) do in the 2.25 petrol cooling system?
The thermostat (532453) controls coolant flow in the 2.25L petrol engine on Series 2 and 3 Land Rovers. It stays closed while the engine warms from cold, then opens at 74°C to route coolant to the radiator, keeping the engine at its correct operating temperature.
Is the 74°C opening temperature correct for all 2.25 petrol engine variants?
This thermostat (532453) is rated at 74°C and is specified for the 2.25L 4-cylinder petrol engine on Series 2 and 3 Land Rovers. Confirm against your workshop manual if you're unsure whether your application requires a different opening temperature.
What happens if the thermostat fails on a 2.25 petrol engine?
A stuck-closed thermostat causes overheating because coolant can't reach the radiator. A stuck-open thermostat causes the engine to run cold, leading to increased wear and poor fuel economy. On the 2.25L petrol engine these symptoms typically point to a failed thermostat once hoses and radiator cap have been ruled out.
