i purposely changed my old thermostat to avoid any failure.
grabbed the thai made, since the seller said it is Genuine Toyota
parts. Made in Thai though.

the car bought over 2nd hand, straight went in workshop and paintshop
to refurbish. Later found it has very bad FC, high idling. Cleaned the
ISCV still doesn't work. Been driving for a year with high FC, changed a
workshop the mech found out the water flows right after the engine
start. took the thermostat out and wash with cool water. it doesn't
close at all. leaving a big gap, around 5mm gap.

ordered japan made thermostat, it looks shorter but fits in.
and its center part is made by copper entirely. Unlike the thai
made only the tip is copper.

photos below are the thai made thermostat. Left in aircond
room for a week. it still doesn't close fully, 1mm gap.
screw thai made parts... :thefinger:

btw, my engine is 4AFE in an AE111N.
