Thanks for this. I changed the thermostat on my 2013 1.6 Astra Estate today, using this video as a guide, and worked great. Thermostat on my car is on the other side of the engine, but was easy to figure out.

Top Video. selbst wenn man wenig english kann versteht man sofort was gemeint ist. er redet auch keinen Müll den keiner braucht und die Bilder sind selbsterklärend. War völlig leicht das Ding zu wechseln. Dankeschön

Thanks very much mate. I'll be doing it tomorrow. It might be worth mentioning the bolts are Torx 10mm, I got that from VOC site. Socket available from Halfords I'm told.

Excellent vid mate, very helpful . Haynes manual is good, but seeing is better. Saved me some time. Ta very much.

Great video, going to do this next week, best to drain the coolant first and then do this as I am going to change the coolant anyway? Thanks

Thank you. Helpful..

Thanks 👌

Thanks for this video. Much appreciated. Does anyone know what o ring size is required.. my thermostat is leaking. thx

I did this job a few years ago myself and I had an issue of the housing hitting the head just above where it is located when removing it on the old and the new part the replacement I ended up carefully sanded down the side of it so it fits how it should and without compromising the new part

Thumbs up.Another job done.lol. Cheers.

Ok mr i like ..caramu mbuka termostate..aku punya mobil chevy zafira 2004 1.8 gl..overheart no sirkulasi water...

Watched this hoping to hear the torque setting for the bolts, but no. Will assume you topped up with propper coolant to avoid corrosion even tho you kept calling it 'water'😳👍

Hii, thank you for the video, I know a while ago but only just found it 😊my first zafira, changing the thermostat housing ect as its leaking,, but I can not get the bolts out for love nore money, any tips? Ie what size? I've used female 7, 8,9 torque bits, they really dont want to move 😂thank u

Hiya can you do a video on changing front brakes pad please. Thanks.

Thankyou for your videos, very informative & helpful regarding Zafira Issues. I have a 2000 X Reg 1.8 Petrol Zafira, the problem I have with the engine fan comes on & off every so many seconds for a few seconds even when cold, & also comes on when temperature gets about half way on the gauge, could that be faulty temperature sensor or thermostat? I also wondered if you knew or had tips for why my power steering works intermittently, I Have checked for right amount of fluid & or any leaks, all is well, but it’s bugging my why it doesn’t always work? TIA for any help or tips why these issues are happening. Daniel.

My temperature gauge on my astra mk 4 1.8 is erratic does not stay steady what cud this be it goes from hot to cold

thankyou for sharing, does that thermostat just allow water flow between radiator and engine? and is there another thermostat that turns on the radiator fan?as my fan isnt turning on after leaving running for over half an hour !

what year is this car, why does my thermostat look different

STOP PRESS! The guy on Vauxhall Owner's Club was wrong! The socket you need is T/E 8mm, not 10mm. And 10mm is the smallest Halfords do. Euro Car Parts do a rack of 4-18mm for £10. The smaller ones, incl 8mm, need a 1/4" drive. The bigger ones are 3/8" drive. I couldnt find anything better in Screwfix or Toolstation.
