Gates 33329 OE Type Engine Coolant Thermostat

Working perfectly for my 2006 Pontiac G6 3.5L (3500 engine) no problems, check between the back of the engine and the battery, thats where it was for me!

Ok, I replaced the OEM thermostat with a Stant thermostat. the old thermostat was definitely bad, it wouldn't close but the car still got hot. Did you see the one star for "install"? This was a 3.4 GM product. Because of design, a normal 30 minute job of changing a thermostat is a 2 1/2 hour job on this vehicle! I got it changed out, problem was not fixed. I changed the working Stant thermostat for the Gates one (only took a couple of hours to change this time, I already had all the correct wrenches out and the skinned places on my knuckles patched up. Still no joy, problem turned out to be a blown head gasket. Did I mention it was a newer GM product? I don't think I could write a review on that engine without using curse words! But the good: This thermostat appeared to be much better quality than the Stant, which I have no complaints at all with. Thermostats are just made up of stamped metal, but Gates used mostly stainless steel, and the gasket was a truly precision part that fit in the opening and stayed there while you put the cover on. Yes, next time I need a thermostat on a vehicle I will probably buy a Gates.

Perfect fit OEM part. I have heat again and I haven’t overheated.

It's great. Just .wat I wanted.

Worked perfectly on my 05 Rondavous

Went right in 2005 impala 3.4,so far running cool at around 159 degrees

Perfect fit on 2006 Uplander. Works great!

Easy to install, works well, excellent price.

Does what it’s made for

Seems like good quality, arrived quickly, fit well and working as it should with 2000-3000km on it

Worked well but could use a hotter thermostat in colder weather.
