Hi

If anyone has a 2.8 thermostat housing lying around for pickup today or tomorrow please let me know!

Euro carparts are showing stock mate. Pretty sure they are open tomorrow. £21.00

Thanks Dave, managed to source one from a breaker, picking up this afternoon

If it's old the housing can go brittle with age and heat so you might have been better off getting a new one Martin. It's not an awful lot to pay for peace of mind.

Hi

Yeah I agree, wanted to get the car back on the road and couldn't get a new one quickly

I've had one crack..
Was going to go with aluminum but it will last another 10+ yrs (assuming it hasn't been in BMW stock for 10+!yrs already!)
The aluminum ones are common in the US
