3.0tdi ASB thermostat

[BakPak]

Hi everyone and sorry for a boring question.
Can someone recommend a good priced thermostat for my 3.0tdi ASB please. I've seen a few on ebay and Autodoc but which one?
Thanks Mark.

Surprised the Gates item is the cheapest. Wouldn't have an issue fitting that. Googling the part number looks to be made in China. But what isn't.

New OE one here, Looks very similar to the Gates item.

Just bought the gates part from Autodoc for £31 delivered, hope it fits lol. Thanks.

I've just seen my reflection, I am going to cut my hair.

I've read that the thermostat can be replaced without taking the bumper off etc.
Can anyone verify this please?

Yes that is right it’s tight but can be done with patience also water pump can be done with bumper on very tight
Good luck
