Frequently asked questions

What does the thermostat and housing do on the VM diesel?
The thermostat and housing regulates coolant flow on the Range Rover Classic 2.4L VM turbo diesel. The thermostat opens as the engine warms to let coolant circulate through the radiator, while the housing carries it and forms the coolant outlet at the water manifold.
Which Range Rover Classic does this thermostat fit?
This thermostat and housing fits the Range Rover Classic 2.4L 4-cylinder VM turbo diesel built 1986 to 1991, up to VIN HA610293. It's the water manifold and thermostat assembly for that engine. Check your VIN against this break before ordering.
What happens when this thermostat fails?
A failed thermostat usually sticks shut or open. Stuck shut, the VM diesel overheats as coolant can't reach the radiator; stuck open, it runs cold and is slow to warm up. Erratic temperature gauge readings often point to the thermostat or its housing.
