🔎 Enhanced Searchability: Beck Arnley 143-0788 Thermostat Review

Perfect fit on my 2009 G37 coupe. The pad of paper is a bit distressing. It will be very painful to wash if I have to do it again.

Attention buyers, not OEM-compatible, thermostat housing is significantly narrower (3/8 inch). OEM thermostat screws fail and break in the cylinder block. Be careful, it works, but not without major changes.

Great for our 2000 Maxima GXE. It was difficult to get to the bolts on the old block (the horn was removed). The seal has adhesive on one side for ease of installation. Exchanged and so far so good, will know more this winter.

I ordered this part to replace a worn thermostat on a 2000 Nissan Maxima SE. It fit perfectly and assembly was easy. There is some glue included in the gasket so you can stick it onto the thermostat before installing it. I still recommend using sealant when installing.

The base is thinner so the OEM bolts are too long. This must be stated in the product description. I had to wait another day to buy shorter screws and make another trip to the parts store. I didn't have anything to use as spacers to make the original ones work. Very dissatisfied

When I received this thermostat it didn't have a gasket. I thought it was used but didn't want to return it as I needed to replace my old thermostat. while everything works. Also, I used a liner maker to seal it. I'm giving it 3 stars because it didn't come with a seal. Did you expect me to install it without it? MY GOD.

Note this will NOT fit exactly (EX 2008) but you will need to use/modify other spacers/screws. I've consulted carefully with other auto parts sellers on the internet and they listed the exact same thermal parts and part numbers. So maybe Nissan changed that part after all. Once you install it retro style it seems to work properly. 3 stars for initial shock from "hell, I ordered the wrong part" to "hey, this might actually fit"

Bad quality, had to return. The gasket surface was very badly scarred around one of the bolt holes. Also looked cheap compared to Nissan's OEM thermostat. I ordered a genuine Nissan thermostat and it works great and looks 10x better than the Beck Arnley which is rough and roughly built not like the smooth polished OEM look. Also, the OEM cost a little less, shipping was $21.63. Giving 2 stars just to be good. It changed very easily. Anyone who says it doesn't simply doesn't know how to use the…
