Nissan Figaro How to Replace the Thermostat
Figaro Thermostat

Nissan Figaro hasn’t been able to raise the water temperature for a while. I thought that the thermostat was stuck open and replaced it.

Tool preparation

First, prepare the tools. Prepare a 10mm box wrench and ratchet wrench, a flat-blade screwdriver and water pump pliers.

Figaro Turbo intake pipe

First, remove the turbo intake pipe.

Figaro Radiator drain

Remove the drain bolt of the radiator and remove the coolant.

Cooling water pipe to the thermostat

You can access the thermostat by removing the cooling water pipe to the thermostat. For the time being, the intake port of the turbo is packed with waste cloth to prevent foreign matter from entering.

Introducing the thermostat

Thermostat appears if you remove three 10mm bolts.

Thermostat direction

The thermostat is oriented and the TOP stamp is on top.

Assembling the thermostat

Just in case, apply liquid packing and install it, and then assemble in the reverse order. Put new coolant in the radiator, turn the engine for a while, check that the thermostat opens, check the amount of coolant, and finish! It took about 40 minutes.
