My Vauxhall Corsa 1.3 CDTi 2011's thermostat is stuck open so I am going to have to buy a new thermostat, the problem is I have no experience with car maintenance or repair, I haven't been able to find anything on-line so far either as it's not a very common model of the car.
I would like to know where abouts the thermostat is located also if anyone has experience doing this?
Thanks.
I would suggest investing in a Haynes Manual for this car. One minor repair like this that you can do yourself will pay for it in savings.
This is the part you are looking for, it's the thermostat housing, that I found on eBay. If I recall, it was for the 2011.
Here is a video on how to change it a thermostat for a Vauxhall Corsa 1.3 (2004). Now it may be in a slightly different location, but usually changing a thermostat won't change that much over the years.
If I can find one for your exact year, I will include it, but this is the best I could find for now. I couldn't find the exact location in a picture anywhere. Due to the lack of information, it may be a bit of work to actually to get to the housing itself.
Thermostart can be situated any where in the water line of the engine either at the top or at the base of the block where the hose meet
