Hi All,

I noticed I have a small weep at the bottom of t/stat housing.

I have had a look around online and cant seem to find a gasket.

Can anyone confirm they actually have one?

Also it looks like a crappy job for access, has anyone got some tips or pointers to remover etc?

Cheers

Nissan, Patrolapart or patroldocta are your choices too mate. Always get nissan brand.

It might have the gasket around the thermostat rather than under it, sold as a complete unit. The same as oil filter gaskets are part of the filter!!
