    Thermostat housing

    Hi guys,

    ive just installed a new thermostat housing in a 2.0 fsi and used so aviation sealant around the o ring and the block, now it appears to be leaking! My bad! It appears I shouldn't have used anything on it?

    Thoughts anyone? If I should have used some sealant, what would you recommend?

    thanks in advance

    No sealant at all.

    A clean surface and a new o-ring is all you need.

    Thanks for that. I'll rip it out and clean it down and put it back.
    Cheers
