I've seen a few of these just to familiarize myself with the location of the part and so on. This was the best one I've seen. Steps were clear. Changing a t-stat on an engine you've never worked on before, it's nice to know where things are located. Most t-stat changes are pretty straightforward but not like it was back when I worked on cars (40 years ago).
One of the best instructional videos I have ever watched. One question, is dexcool not orange anymore?
Should have changed the lower hose too.
Great video. Very clear. Thanks for making it.
Thx saved me 500 bucks from the dealership took me 45 minutes at my house lol ya I'm slow 🐌
Thanks for the video guys! Very helpful! But, by any chance do you all know where the ambient temp sensor is so the temp on my rear view mirror can read accurately?
It is the best explanation for me 😅
I can never find the bolt sizes in most DIY videos! I need to know if this is a M6x1 or what size???
Is this on the 4cyl or 6?
Nice video. But, my 3.7 has the thermostat on the passenger side of the engine. Can't access it from the wheel well.
No body shows on how yo bleed the cooling system ???
My power steering pump is in the way of the bottom bolt of my i5 2010 colorado
Plus my hose feeds from the top not the bottom
What if you have a very small leak after replacing the thermostat. I followed your video to the t
Isn't there a little rubber washer that has to go on there somewhere?
