Just been out doing the weekly checks and have noticed a weep of coolant from the 'stat housing itself...
It's where two parts are joined, the spigot for the top hose and the main body.
More annoying as I only replaced it in August 2019. The replacement was a Gates and I now have a Febi one to potentially go on, but after a close look the moulding doesn't look that great...
Both the Gates and Febi are stamped made in Italy, so guessing they came from the same factory, hence my lack of confidence.
So I've now ordered a Valeo one...
Do any of you good people have experience of quality replacement?
On a different note, is it ever going to stop raining so proper tinkering with the cars can resume...?!
