Subject: Re: Thermostat


Non-OEM parts are available at significantly less than £50. In several decades of motoring I've never fitted an OEM thermostat to other than a Triumph (British Leyland parts were always dirt cheap). Thermostat is not the most difficult to manufacture part on the planet, moreover the symptoms of failure are highly observable - you have a temperature gauge in the cabin. German-Swedish are a highly reputable third-party supplier used extensively by the trade. See www.gsfcarparts.com/. They list Saab thermostats from £5.50. Replacement is a simple DIY job even for the hamfisted.
