Inline Thermostat
Just ordered an inline thermostat for my 75 cdti from Mat at DMGRS, as ive only been getting upto about 75 degrees, so the new stat should push the temperature into the mid eighties where it belongs, enjoy doing these little mods which improve the car.

The new stat should put the temp when hot at 90 degrees give or take 1 degree.
I changed my oem one and it now sits at exactly 90 degrees on the motorway but drops in this cold weather when I leave the motorway to between 84 and 88 degrees. |

The link you want is
http://www.the75andztclub.co.uk/foru...68468&page=105 The tricky bit is cutting off the old band off round the top hose. In the end I went for the diesel remote kit which was a lot easier to fit, you just need to cut 6mm out of the top hose. Note the assembly has different diameters at each end to cater for the top hose taper. http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Rover-75-M...item566d1d24ac If you want to use the Renault thermostat go to DMGRS shop under "Traders Shops" Mike |

Not trying to be picky - just that I've been debating which approach to go for with this myself. |

That does seem a very fast warmup time for a diesel, do try and access the obd display and take a reading as you may have a sticking stat (very unusual if you have though)
