Technical Shop4parts thermostat

[Speedgearspecial]

Hi, does anyone know if the shop4parts thermostat for a 1.2 16v is a FIAT item or good quality part? I have changed mine twice now, brought from a local motor factors and they seem to fail / stick open during and after Winter.

if you want dealer part then dealer it is
by the way you are lucky as fiat thermostats always fail shut that i have seen and go on to cause cylinder head gasket failure
got one in today strangely enough

Why not phone Shop4parts and ask them?

The thermostat that eurocarparts offer is decent
VERNET Thermostat £14.70 - save 20% promo code atm is "SAVENOW" i think,
I used this part in my car and can recommend it

They sell both and the prices are quite similar. Thanks all.

I fitted an S4P thermostat nearly 2 years ago and its still going fine.
