In this video I sure the steps and procedures necessary to replace the coolant thermostat on a Nissan Titan. Years 2004 to current. these procedures will be the same for Nissan Armada and Infiniti QX56 as well. Nissan uses this thermostat for the new generation titans as well as the old generation titans. this particular vehicle is a 2006 Nissan titan 2wd. In this instance, if the vehicle sat idle in for more than five minutes the temperature will start to rise and the engine would overheat. I hope this video helps you out, if it has please like and subscribe, if you have any questions or comments feel free to leave something in the comment section. Thank you for watching

nice video. just as a little side note, the little pin on the side of the thermostat should be orientated up. that makes it easier for air to escape from the engine block. Doesn't really matter all that much, but I figured I would mention it.
I'd use the holes. That little bleeder is BS on every car I've done lol
for everyone following this video, A LOWER TEMP STAT IS NOT A GOOD MOVE. Engines have a design temp. When you use a lower temp stat, it will open earlier at a lower temp. This will only serve to INCREASE warm up time. If it's high-flow too, then it may cause the engine to not ever reach Design Temp. Just stick a 82C back in there. The install tutorial was great though.
A warning for those of you buying the thermostat: The gasket does not come on all the thermostats--without this gasket, your seal will leak. I found out by experience! And YES, this saved me 600$ which is what a local mechanic wanted to change this plus a back flush!
100% correct same thing just happened
I literally went to AutoZone and they told me I didn’t need it since the gasket didn’t show up on their system. Went to oriellys and they showed me the exact gasket I needed
Yes! Finally a Titan video! Great tutorial, thank you.
Thank you! More coming!
Aaron Hines No, THANK YOU! And that truck was a good candidate for an engine cleaning video lol.
@@dateatorjr9671 thats funny you say that, because i cleaned it after working on it. nothing worse then a dirty engine bay, i guess the guy lives on a dirt road in west az.
I change my radiator for a full aluminum one and also installed a safelock thermostat just in case it helps a lot the stealership wanted $130 bucks for the original made in china not japan !
Couldn’t have done it without you! Thank you
Did you have to use a gasket for the housing?? Or is the rubber seal on the thermostat enough to seal off the collant ? Greg.
Your a good teacher and details included is very helpful. Thanks. Peace 🕊️
Yes , Thank you for a Well made video plus we understood every thing that you were saying . very well made! Thank you.
Hello, Aaron! Big fan of your channel as I also own a Titan myself. This is a long shot, but will you put on a tutorial on how to replace a radiator on a Nissan Titan?(Reading Titan forums online. Radiators seems to be a weak point in these vehicles?) I'm willing to donate as I think you're doing the community a big favor of saving us $ for us DYIers. We appreciate what you do. Thank you.
The radiator on the titans are fine for regular use but if you're towing a camper or are overheating, add a transmission cooler. I did, so much better!
Wow l learn how to change w pump was easy explant and l goin to try my self thaks for your inf
Hey Aaron, Excellent video!!! , just a question about the reservoir, I can't see the max fill line, it is half of the bottle or higher? Once again thanks for your videos they are so helpful, I already fix a lot of things on my 04 Titan thanks to you. 👍👍👍
On my 07 there is a little lip around the reservoir right under that lip it’s says max on it Ik it’s a bit late but hope it helps
Great video thank you so much
I have a 2008 v8 pathfinder. 5.6L engine. Is this the same motor? Pathfinder videos on here are mostly v6s. Thanks
Hi Aaron.. Just subbed to you channel.. Lots of informative stuff in here.
How is the low temp thermostat doing so far? Any issue you faced till now?
I'm planning to install that in my Armada because I'm living in a really hot area and just wanted to know if this would hurt the mileage or anything.
Thank you this helps a lot
Excellent video!
5:34 Make sure that little tab on the rim of the thermostat is in the same position as the original .
Tnks for share this video
I've noticed that none of the Titan thermostat housing replacements have a gasket.. the thermostat housing gasket?? Does the rubber seal on the thermostat seal off the collant ?
Like the way you make your videos.
Hi All, its winter here in Saskatoon, Sk.
My 2004 Titan shows normal temp on dash, but it blows "warm" air only.
so would this be the cause of my prolem.
I CAN hear the temp move when i turn from knob hot/cold/ AC/ and foot dash, face
any ideas
THANK YOU
Hey I was wondering if u can tell me why my coolant keeps running out my overflow line on my reservoir but my truck is not running hot at all
Thanks
i have nissan armada 2014 its geting over heat in idle iff i stop my car around 40 min .i replace radaitor assambly and i replace tharmostat velve 76 numbar .still same probleam .can u help me wht i have to do next step plzz
Did you find out what it was
I was wondering if there is a metal thermostat housing. I hate the plastic ones
Hi Aaron did you replace your thermostat first or the water pump or were both bad?
Shouldn't the anti-freeze color be blue to meet Nissan spec's? Great videos!!!! Keep them coming!!!
Thanks! Nissans oem antifreeze is blue, yes. But there are many universal antifreeze mixtures that meet or exceed nissans requirements. And some are green
I noticed on the left side of the housing there is some residue/buildup on the engine same on this truck , is this an oil leak or debris from tensioner or belt?
hi! one question, where is the coolant Temperature Sensor? in the back or front near the inlet water... thxxx
Good informative video. But bro you really need an engine detail. Pretty dirty! 😉
Ty
Thanks man!!
15 ft-lb torque on the housing bolts. Just in case anyone wants to know.
My thermostat is leaking.. going to replace it since I have to take it off.. is there a gasket or o-ring on the housing? Should I put a little rtv around the housing?
a little rtv wont hurt but is not completely necessary, an o ring is included in the OEM part from Nissan, however if you purchase a thermostat from oreillys or napa, you most like will have to purchase the seal separately, check out the links in the description of this video to find the right part u need.
@@AaronHinesAuto I tightened the bolts a little and the leaking stopped lol..
I have another issue tho.. my heater isn't working but the valve under the cowl has heat on both sides.. any thoughts on what could be the problem?
the thermostat can go in any position or has a guide
COOLENT BLEEDING CAN DO THIS EVERY THING ?AND HOW I CAN DO COOLENT BLEEDING PLEASE ADVISE ME🙏
Any of you guys have the temp gauge inside your dash go up and down. (08 Nissan Titan) I don’t know what the problem is, but I guess it looks like I’ll start with the thermostat. Any ideas guys?
If my heater is not blowing out warm air, could that be my thermostat as well? It worked last year. I tried it the other day and there is NO evidence of warm air.
Thanks.
The heater valve Aaron shows at the end, the one on the back of the firewall with the two hoses to it that switches the a/c to heat. That has a motor inside it that gets rusted and fails. That’s 99% your issue I am sure
Great video Aaron. Question, Is there a way you can tell that a thermostat is bad once you pull it out.
Heat it in water till it hits 180° and if it doesnt open then its bad. Temps may change you just need to know what temp thermostat you have
My 2004 titan temperature gauge goes from middle to cold . Any idea on what could it be?
If it take a lot to get to normal running temperature and heater air is not as hot; it could be a thermostat that is stuck open. Had that happen to me on a different vehicle.
@@MarcoRodriguez-lr2xt it goes from cold to the middle. Never to hot level. When the middle is close to cold and I press on the gas then it move to the middle. Thank you for the reply. Should I change the sensor and thermostat?
@@michaelreyes6761 i would change thermostat first. But if sensor is easy to change and not very expensive you could change it as well. Depends on your budget.
@@MarcoRodriguez-lr2xt thank you Marco. I’ll let you know the outcome after I change it.
@@michaelreyes6761 any update? Mine does the same. Temperature at middle is higher than normal for my truck.
I've done this a few times and no matter what I do I still get leaks from between the housing and block. I've even changed the housing twice and I still get leaks. What do you suggest I do to prevent leaks from the thermostat/housing area?
Do you see any small cracks around that area? That’s very strange. I’m asunming you are installing a new o ring when doing this. Perhaps a small film of rev silicone would help it seal
@@AaronHinesAuto no small cracks. Brand New thermostat with new seal around it. Maybe it wasn't an oem thermostat. Maybe AutoZone didn't have OEM. I'm not sure. I just placed an order for the one you put a link for. Guess we'll see what happens.
@@TheJqueezy did it work?
@@eirod yes, I think one thing you have to make sure you do is after you put the thermostat in make sure you twist it clockwise until it locks in place. Not sure if that’s something you actually have to do, but I believe it helped in my situation. After I changed it, and did that, I didn’t have any more leaks

Cam a bad air conditioner compressor overheat engine water pump is fine mm syne thermo also can u jb we look d top radiator hose to underneath cap
Which coolant should I use for a 2006 Titan?
Green
No gasket on the housing? Just on the thermostat itself?
I have an 04 and that's how it's been the last couple times I've changed the thermostat. No gasket. Apparently, the rubber around the edge of the thermostat IS the gasket.

My 2006 heater blows cold air
Caskas heater valve on the passenger side firewall is probably stuck close. Easy fix
@@colbybrewer4418 thank you for the advice. I'll look at it on Saturday. Much appreciated.
@@kickassv8 Everywhere I looked has a bad thermostat as the reason for no hot air. Did you ever find out if it was the heater valve, or thermostat?
