Have noticed my car is running too cold and think the thermostat is the likely culprit, seems to be a trait with my cars, the 155 also needs a new stat yet thats amost £45!!

On the 33 I.E, is it just the stat I can buy, or does it generally come with the housing?

The thermostat on the series 3 33 comes in a complete housing.

An example is:



Hope this helps,

Suds had a two piece stat housing where you could replace just the stat. Bobbber managed to get one like this for me but he had a job finding it.

Yes you have to buy the complete housing for series 2 and 3 33s. £20-£25 is about the right price I'm afraid.
