FEBI174574 Febi Thermostat Housing

It’s basically the container that holds your thermostat, and more importantly, it seals the coolant system where the thermostat lives. It has gaskets—seals—that keep the coolant from leaking out, and passages that allow it to flow properly. It’s not just a plastic or metal box, it’s part of how everything stays cooled down. The thermostat housing is right there where the engine coolant is circulating, controlling temperature. Coolant flows from the engine, through the thermostat (which opens and closes to regulate temperature), and then back to the radiator. The housing makes sure that whole process happens smoothly and doesn’t leak. It's positioned to allow the thermostat to accurately read engine temperature and regulate coolant flow, so everything runs within its safe range. If the housing cracks or gets damaged—sometimes from age, sometimes from corrosion—you'll have coolant leaks. Even a small leak can cause your engine to overheat, which can lead to serious and expensive repairs. You’ll notice if it’s leaking—usually a green or orange puddle under the car, or you might smell coolant. The housing acts like a shield, protecting the thermostat and keeping the system sealed. If that seal is broken, you’re running a risk. We carry a good range of these at Fixparts Online, and getting a replacement is a lot cheaper than dealing with an overheated engine. It’s a relatively inexpensive part that can prevent a major headache. Shop with confidence: Thermostat Housing (MPN 174574) comes with a 3 year manufacturer guarantee!
